I have been living/hunting in Boise, Idaho for the last five years and have been successful in taking Deer, waterfowl and upland game. This year however I am going to try turkey hunting. Does anyone have any experience hunting turkeys in Idaho? If so, can you suggest a region that holds a sizable population of birds that I can scout. Also, any tips that you can provide that would increase my odds of harvesting a bird would be appreciated. I have purchased a box call and mouth call (The limbhanger by Primos) and am practicing with them. Which one do you think I should go with? I have heard beginners should stick with the box call just because it is easier and you lessen the chance of producing a bad note.
Thanks for you help.

Box Calls are great except when the bird starts comin' in close, the less movement the better. That is what makes the diaphragm call one of my favorites. But generally I think you will find after you hear that first gobble in the wild, you are goin' to start collecting a huge hodge podge of calls and toys. I find if one type of call isn't working, try another. Good luck.
