Default Locater calls

Hey everyone im new to this type of great huntin. I was wondering if its ok to use a locator call while your scouting or if you just use them during the season?

A locator call is all I use during scouting. I also use a locator call before sunrise (owl hooter) and after sunrise I will use a crow call to locate during turkey season.

You can use a locator if u want when scouting. It may only work when it is closer to breeding season. Basically..a turkey will gobble at noise they here. Ive closed my truck door one time and he gobbled to me. A locator call gives em' a reason to call. It triggers em' off. I use an owl call early in the mornin' and a crow call in the afternoon. Good luck and have fun!!!

Has anyone tried Primos's peacock locator call? I was wanting to know if it is worth the money to try it out along with crow/owl calls...
