Time to get the turkey calls out and practice calling.
What calls do use what ever if it a box , slate or mouth call.
I have some Quaker Boy , H. S. Strut , Knight - n - Hale and a few others that I like to play with.

I've got a Cody glass call (just got for Christmas, so I've been playing around with it a lot), and a Knight & Hale box call. I'd really like to learn how to use a mouth call effectively too before spring.

I have one home made one the "tominator" But I want to get a box or slate or diaghram call and I really need a locator.

IMO, the key is to get a couple calls that you are good on. A slate call is very versatile, as well as a tube call. Box calls make greats sounds as well! However the mouth call has revolutionized the way people hunt! Get practicing!

My favorite calls are probably my glass over glass or Alum over slate calls. The thing that really matters I think is that you have to have confidence in your skills and calling ability, call at the wrong time and he's going to sit out there 80 yards away. Call at the right time and he's gunna get whacked!
I have been turkery hunting for 10 years!
Shoot straight!

Like Willie said, you need to find a few calls that you have confidence in. I try to take a glass over slate, a glass over glass, and a slate over glass for friction calls, and a few diaphragms that I can make any call I want when needed. Itake that many callsfor R&D purposes, but it's certainly not necessary. If I were you, I'd get 1 call you really work welland a handfull of strikers to go with it. Practice up, try different strikers to get the different sounds. It's always good to become skilled on a diaphragm for the hands-free benefits of working close birds too. But the MOST IMPORTANT thing is practice, practice, practice. You have to know that when you try to make a cackle, it will sound like a cackle.

I usually stick to a slate call, as that is what I am best at, however, I can do some basic calling with a mouth call. I have been practicing with a mouth call for a while now and I can definitely tell that I have gotten a lot better with it than when I first started!

My commute to work is 140 miles round trip. I have had my mouth calls riding with me since I got a new one for Christmas. I hate that vinyl taste when they are new!

Good idea too bad I can't do that on the school bus I go down to the basement and practice.
