It consisted of a 30sec. phone conversation for the OK So teach me turkeys.... make me a list of what I NEED. I really nead the help I dont have a blind or anything, but dont wanna break the bank in anything like a double bull. List what i need and what brand you suggest in all your suggestions, Thanks ahead of time, I am actually excited. When just earlier today, i didnt really care.

Drive to my house one day this week. You'll leave with everything you need except a blind.

^ and if you want a blind go to a D I C K S sporting goods if you have one and they have good deals on blinds all the time. I got one that i can shoot my bow out of and it was 60 bucks.

Congrats on the land,

I personally choose some of the Knight and Hale friction calls - It is the yella hammer sounds ok

And you may want to try an expandable for the birds -

Be sure to get the correct shells/turkey loads that is required by in your State to shoot Turkeys with and about 2 decoys (a Hen and a Jake or Tom).Lots of guys hunt on the ground or behind a natural blind (fallen tree/limbs etc..) to get a turkey but a CamoBlind is nice to help conceal you and help keep you out of the weather if it is nasty outside,rainingor windy/cold! Good Luck Turkey Hunting

We carry Double Bulls, and a few other brands of blinds at the shop, but I have to say, this blind is the nicest for the money. It's nice and roomy, we have a last years model that we hunt out of shop owner, a buddy and myself. We can easily fit 3 of us in it. The only difference between this years and last years, is last years is taller.

As far as calls, it sounds like Jeff has you hooked up. If not, look at the Primos line of calls. I like the Ol' Betsy slate call, and a few mouth calls to look at are the A-Fram Double Bat cut, this call is flat out awesome. The A-Frame Double Reed with Double Cut is a good one too. My favorite is probably the Tony Ruiz signature series, triple reed w/ Bat Cut.
