Tail Feathers

These Texas Rio Grande turkeys seem to like the higher pitched calls. Buy him a nice glass or crystal call. The Primos Power Crystal is nice. It takes a lot to rough up the surface to make it play well but it's a good call and costs about $18 or so.
A good box call is hard to beat. Primos makes one called the box cutter that sounds good. Lynch makes several box calls, all are good. Cost...around $20-35.
www.hookscalls.com These folks sell some great calls for great prices. You would be doing him a favor to buy their crystal call and box call and toss in a couple of "Sassy Gal 2" mouth calls for him to learn on.
He'll need camoflage to wear. Turkeys see very well. Decoys are optional but if you buy some try to get Feather Flex decoys. A hen decoy and a jake decoy will probably do just fine.
If you want to spend more...a turkey vest is a good thing to have. Check e-bay for good prices on vests.
Good luck, he's lucky to have a wife that wants to give him good thoughtful gifts.
