Default RE: How Far Can They Hear Your Calls?

ORIGINAL: bradisthebest

I have seen birds come a mile and more to turkey calls.
I second this. I was glassing birds with a friend from the city the other day, and found one on the edge of a field. He had never heard a gobble, so I popped in the mouth call and gave a few cutts. He looked at me once, then a minute later, looked up the hill and started running away at top speed. I thought I spooked him, until my friend goes, "Holy crap, there are turkey running at us." Sure enough, I look up the hill and three gobblers are at a sprint towards tha car and the road, and as soon as they hit that field the went into full strust, gobbling. Anyway, I know the farm, and those birds had to be at least 3/4 of a mile, maybe a little more. Point is that those birds can cover some distance, and really really fast.
