When do you start practicing?
 
Your calls?

In my early years of turkey hunting, I would start in late February practicing my mouth calls so that I'd be ready by April 18th. After several years of devoted practice, I only need a couple weeks or so to get back to form now.

How far in advance do you start?

Pretty much start running the calls right after deer season, I would not call it practice as much as addiction!

Right on brotha!!!

Same here. I start messing with them all during the winter months. Not steady though. I hit them hard around March.

I'm getting better at not going overboard. I broke out my calls a few times so far but I'm sure as April draws near I'll be hitting them harder. I can't hunt until almost the end of April.

I was just thinking that I need to throw mine in the truck to be productive during my commute.
