Welcome to the board F-I-C!A real key to bowhunting is getting your bow drawn without that bird seeing ya.Even in great camoflauge turk's main defense is their eyesight and they make a living on picking up movement.Good camo,proper backing,a blind,a decoy or two,and learning to use a diaphragm turkey call will all help in this regard.So is knowing and anticipating when to draw your bow.Using the lay of the land,a stump,a tree,or maybe the birds tail fan,all may give you an opportunity to draw your bow.Understand your taking the ultimate challenge and thats harvesting a gobbler with your bow,and its your first turkey season.So expect some exciting moments along with some frusterating one's as well.Even though the friction type calls are probably the simpilest to use learning to use a diaphragm aids a bowhunter greatly in leaving your hands free to operate your bow.Use a friction call to bring him your way and when he gets close switch to a diaphragm.Learn to cluck and purr on a diaphragm and dont worry about all that hard agressive stuff.To much emphasis is put on being a great turkey caller.Put your energy into a good set-up, in front or the direction the bird intends to go and you'll be on your way to harvesting your first spring gobbler!
