Will a jake "put"
 

I've only turkey hunted for 3 years, but I've always been under the impression that only hens would "put". Well, this morning I had a jake within about 30 yards and it was "putting" away. Was this a jake or could it have been a bearded hen?

A "putt' is basically the sound they make to warn of danger.

I am new to this game. I always figured that would be called a cutt. I guess a putt and cutt is totally different.

Put... er... putt = bad
cutt... er... cut = good

I've heard all turkeys put. Even toms. Toms will yelp too. All turkeys can vocalize different ways.

LMAO Bob,

RE: Will a jake "put"
 

Cutts and putts are two totally different comunitcations-

Cutting is done by hens when they are very excited, or in some cases aggrevated at other birds normally a raspy series of clucks put together..

I'm sure somebody here can post a site that has turkey vocabulary in it for you to identify the different sounds.. If not get you a CD or tape from Midwest Turkey call supply

Hope that helps
