how many calls?
 

hi,

im wonderin how many calls each us are takin into the feild this spring. i will be taking 7. 3 slates, 1 box, 1 mouth, 1 crow, 1 owl.


what about the rest of ya

While I'm always supportive of OWNING tons of calls, I'd be hard pressed to want to carry 7 calls. I take one or two slate pots and a couple diaphragms. Occasionally leave a pot at home and replace it with a box. Been working on being able to leave the hand calls at home altogether.

i would never head into the turkey woods without my slates. i dont know why but i love em

One slate with 4 strikers, one Lynches box call that I bought in the 70s, 4-5 diaphragm calls and a crow call...I seldom use an owl hoot but if I do, I use my mouth...I prefer for them to gobble by themselves on the roost before moving into position...

One long box, one short box, a Crystal Mistress, slate call, and a few diaphrams. As the season progresses, I will pare this down to just a couple of calls.

one slate one box and a crow and an owl call sometimes i use a mouth call

when your brother dosent use it first:wink:

Crow and owl calls,one box,one crystal,two mouth calls.I'm new at this and that's all I own.

im sure I have to many but I suppose its better to be overprepared than under

One slate with two or three different strikers, one box, and a little carry case that fits all of diaphragm calls. I don't use shock calls, as the private property I hunt is mostly fields and the small patches of woods we do have the turkeys don't roost in. No sense in waking them up when I know they all roost in the next lot over. Luckily no one over there hunts them, or they'd never make it to me. But yeah, multiple boxes or slates start to take up too much room. I try to travel light. If it doesn't fit in a vest pocket or my decoy bag, it doesn't come.
