As superstrutter said, just practice with your mouth. I've been doing that the last couple years and made more turkeys shock gobble than when I used a owl hooter.

Thanks, BigTimer. Yeah, Chris does good work. I can put you in touch with him if you want. I have three of his calls; the hooter, a matching grunter both made from bloodwood and a crow call made from palm.

primos hoot flute works well.

Just to pass on an update, I went to the NWTF National Convention last weekend and the guy who made the hooter I posted above placed 3rd in the callmaker's contest, Owl Hooter division.
This was his 3rd place entry.
snakewood and blackwood with the mosaic pins in the aluminum band


and this was his second entry that did not place, african blackwood with mosaic pins in the brass band. There were some great hooters up there!
Hooters like these run around $50.00 to $75.00 depending on the wood, bands and pins, mostly.

I've used HS reed owl hooter and Primos wood hooter.In my experience unless your very close a turkey rarely reacts to any locator calls.They all work very well in the vids but....
