The only time I ever try calling them in is when I'm hunting. Why educate the birds and make them call shy when you cant make it count!

I agree ... why go out and tip them off , letting the birds know your out there is only going to hurt your chance's.

gulvas they say the turkey has a brain the size of a pea but they are very smart birds dont be callin till your season opens and call then and get one . Good luck be safe & shoot straight.:)

Yep I agree with every one else. Its the best way to mess yourself up when the season comes in.

Call shy has to be the most overused term there is.If your are saying that a turkey is call shy that means that it will not respond to another turkey.That is not what happens.Turkeys get people shy from being called to and spooked.

Wacker, no need to split hairs. I belive what they are refering to is what you are refering too also. But like everyone else said, why would you want to? lol

it is not a very good idea at all. the birds dont only get "call shy" from being spooked..they also get call shy from going to hen calls time after time to find no hen. in nature ready hens will find gobblers. thats why many hang up. we try to reverse nature and make the gobblers come to the hens. it works..when the gobbler is that fired up or that lonely. could be the ugly bird lol. in nature female species pick and choose who they want to mate with and a couple dominant birds do most of the breeding. calling before the season is a good way to ruin your chances once the season is here and theres no reason to do it. practice your calls at home and do your scouting with your legs, eyes and ears not your calls. theres a pretty big problem with preseason calling in PA. with so many hunters doing it, it definently has its effects.
