Federal Supreme #5 shot.

RE: Whats your turkey load this spring?
 
My best luck was with a truck horn.

It was by accident. I stopped the truck and was getting out to take a leak, when I bumped the horn. Sure enough the woods just exploded with gobbles.

Ever since then, When all of the other locate calls fail, I'll hit the horn or even slam by door. Now the key is, when you do get a response from one of these noises, don't walk straight at the gobbler. Work your way around him and start calling from a different direction.

I've shot Federals since 1998, but this year will be an exception. After all the talk on this board, I tried the Winchester HV #5's and they are absolutely tremendous! I've switched, look out longbeards.
