Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Don't buy a Primos owl call. They suck really bad, sounds like a sick duck. If you can do it with your mouth it will sound better.

HS has a descent one. If you buy a Primos one, cover all the port holes...then they don't sound too bad.

The best production owl call in my opinon is the Palmers Hoot Tube. The best I have ever heard is my custom mahogony call made by Bud and Betty's. But still, I have made plenty gobble just by hollering like an owl.

Years ago I started with a Quaker Boy owl hooter and then went to using my mouth. It sounds like "Who Cooks For You, Who Cooks For You All". I just use it in the late evening as a locator call.

I make my own owl hoot by cupping my hands and calling out the, "who cooks for you who for you all".With practice you can fix up the calling and it works real well

My Primos Camp Owl sounds pretty decent. Not much volume tho, but if you need more you can take the mouth piece out of the tube. I had them gobble to it last year even without the volume.
