Next Turkey Hunting Goal

Now that I have gotten my first turkey I want to try to get one with what most of my friends would consider non traditional calls. Trumpets, Wingbones, Yelpers, Tongue call, scratch boxes, Jolley Scratch Tube, tube call, hen box and so on.

I am hoping my shoulder is good enough for bow for deer this fall and certainly for turkey in the spring, surgery is tomorrow so time to get ready to heal. Turkey with a bow is something I have wanted to do since before my car accident in 2001. I would also like to do it with a flint lock muzzle loader.

I also want to get much better with mouth calls and make some more pot call kits as well as a box call kit.

What are your future goals in turkey hunting?

My goal is just to enjoy life and kill turkeys ...  hope to buy some more calls ... :TooFunny:

You already got one with a non traditional call. Most folks on here have never heard of a Griz wood friction call. I know because I ask- I think you and one other person were the only one to reply.

Goal is to enjoy each spring a little more then the last and see as many places as I can. I have no realistic way that could ever imagine killing a bird in every state but I love taking trips and seeing as many as I can.

If we're just talking about trying out calls, I'd like to get a hen box this summer.

I did think of that, but I follow him on Facebook so to me he has become common though his calls are not if you know what I mean.

Talking about anything that you want to accomplish turkey hunting that you have not already or wish to again. I was up on Mr. Fulkerson's list and I had to let my place go this month due to money, really broke my heart to do it. It will come up again I am sure and I think I will start putting some money to the side in Paypal for when it does.

That's a good woman right there. I wish her the best of luck.

Good Luck with your surgery, and recovery.

For me, to take my grandson turkey hunting next year. He will be 5 years old.

Taking kids is always fun, I would imagine it is even better with family.
