Hoosier,

All the advice above is right on. How to videos are a good idea. So are cd's and tapes of real turkeys. You can find some cd's of real turkeys at the Midwest turkey call supply website. When commuting to work by yourself, pop in the cd, put in your mouthcall and practice away. It's a perfect way to learn the cadence and rhythm of the birds without ticking off your loved ones by practicing in the house!

As far as hunting, I would try and locate your local chapter of the NWTF. Turkey hunters love showing the ropes to a new hunter and I'm sure if you attended a meeting of the local chapter or contacted someone with the chapter and told them you were new to the sport and were looking for guidance, you'd probably get an offer or two to tag along with an experienced hunter. There's no better way to learn that from someone showing you in the the field!!

Good luck!!
