RE: Calling while scouting??
I agree with not using calls during scouting. I find, typically, turkeys will be in the same areas every year unless something has drastically changed. Look for sign, get to learn the lay of the land. Getting up early and letting them gobble on their own is enough for me to have a sense where they'll be. Calling to them may be exciting but it's not going to make your chances of shooting one any better.
