I try to stay away from the ones at Walmart. However Primos came out with some that are pretty good with consistent latex reeds. I have to find the names and I will post. Knight and Hale calls where my favorite for a long time. Most custom calls are easy to get good sound. If you are at a hunting show there is usually a custom maker there. They will get you started it the right direction. A stiff double reed is usually a good one to start with. Woodhaven is also a source for quality calls. After that its just practice. Many apps for your phone that will give you every turkey sound there is. Three calls you need to learn in this order. First the yelp, second the cluck and the third the purr. From those three you can branch off to tree yelps, cackles, sexy cackles and kee kee runs. Ageed reals hens can sound awful but to me learning the cadence is just as important. Stay with it you will get it.

I use Pittman calls for years and still do . I have also tried some of the Woodhaven call in the Ninja series they are easy to use.

You can be the worst sounding caller but if you know when to call and when not to call then you can get birds to come to you. Most folks call too loud and too often that’s 2 of the worst things a guy can do IMO.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Yelp three times and shut up has killed a ton of birds and will continue to.
