For hens the calls that worked the best for me this year was Darren Dawkins stoned aluminum in the plastic pot and a Permar model .45.  I called in a LOT of hens this year. 
Here's a short video I filmed just after using these two calls....

I feel your pain but in truth that is what makes a great call.  It is harder to fool a hen sometimes.  It is frustrating as heck, yes!  In my video posted above I was hoping for a gobbler in tow.  Last year it was jakes and this year it was hens.  I hate turkeys.  Sometimes.

Birds have been weird this year responding to calls in my are, but my atomic 13 has done the best

Keep them coming. A lot of guys don't think of calling to the hens in the spring but it can really pay off. The most success I have had calling up hens throughout the years is with a hooks diaphragm call. It didn't really seem to matter much what call I had in and when soft talking.

Seemed I saw the most hens this year while running a Hank's Padauk Aluminum. Also was the death of two birds so it was pretty solid on the boys as wel!
