Deerhunter thinking of giving it a try!

Where in New England do you hunt? I hunt turkeys in RI and CT. I'm still a novice at it, but man, its fun! Check out a CD or do a search for turkey vocalizations and listen to sound clips online. Learn to use a couple different calls. Box calls and slate calls are probably among the easiest, although they do have push button calls to that will probably get the job done. Remember, what gets them fired up today might do nothing tomorrow, but something else might do the trick so carry a few calls. Dont call too much, they will probably just hang up and try to make you (the hen) come to them.Playing hard to get is tough when they gobble at every cluck you make, but you want him to come in, not just gobble his head off out of range! A good slate type call for the beginner that wont break the bank is Knight and Hale's Ol' Yeller. Sounds good, easy to use, and it works!
Good luck!
Good luck!

Once you buy your calls and scout out the area going to hunt remember this dont call if you aint hunting what i mean is dont go before season and see if you can call a turkey wait untill you can hunt him or you will educate the bird and be camoed to the max cover every inch of your body dont look around like you can in a tree stand use eyes and ears best way to find the birds when you have a few days before season starts is to enter the woods 40 min before day light where you want to huntand listen for birds to gobble at day light and try and figure where hes going from there if he gobbles enough he will come if you wasnt so far you could come to wva and i would take you with me and show you some stuff i call for several people every year if you have any questions feel free to pm me or email me be glad to help good luck
