I use as many calls as I need, to find one that he likes.
2days ago I had 3 gobblers gobblin thier heads off to a crow call.
That is all they would answer.
But mostof the time, the shock owl call does the best.
But so far this year that hasn't been true. I tried to roost the same gobblers this evening using the owl call and they didn'tmake a peep.
At least, if you have several of these calls, you can try them.
Owl,crow,woodpecker, coyote howler. I've even heard of a hawk and apeacockcall.
Maybe you'll have one he likes.
If you don't have them to try,you will never know...:(

at first like the owl call for me, after daylight i switch to the crow call,for my area these two work the best, i've had turkeys gobble to the crow call and not open there mouth to a turkey call, they've probably got educated and are call shy, don't hunt without your locator calls. good luck.

What I have noticed is that the pitch in a crow call can be the difference in night or day for a gobble. I have had one not work and to turn around and use another with a different pitch and it works fine. I carry 3 different ones with me 2 from name brand companies and 1 in my voice box ;)

Locators are the same as turkey calls themselves. The air presure can change the pitch of calls on anyone day and what worked yesterday may not work today. Having a free range of calls can and will make the difference between roosting and roasting...BT
