Good luck! I started 4 years ago and have had some pretty good luck. There's nothing like getting a gobbler convinced and listening to him hey closer and closer. Until he's in your face, hammering, and you can feel the gobble in your chest. So much fun! Hope you have some awesome experiences. This year will be my daughter's first year turkey hunting and I've never been so excited.
@deanrodriguez5067 my first year I didn't get even close until the last day I could hunt of the season May 29th. I ended up calling in a Jake to 5 yds with my 6 yr old daughter with me. Every year has been a great experience since. Good luck, keep after it!!!
Did it this morning. Saw my Aunt leaving the property after feeding cows and she said they are down there, you’ll here him when you open your door…..sure enough!😂😂😂
@@joncasey8077 HA! I was out in the woods one day and my neighbor called me up and asked me what I was up to. I told them "turkey hunting". They said "There's one by your truck in your driveway right now." 😂
Thank you. Very informative. How does someone master the use of the mouth call? In my case, the actual use of it. Pretty much a rookie, but I so much want to learn more about this sport. Ty
Our suggestion is just practice practice practice, and try different cuts and brands of calls. Don't spend hundreds of dollars, but buy a few different ones and see what fits best in your mouth and which one you are making the best "turkey sound" with. Everyone is different, mastering volume control and tempo of your calling is just as or more crucial that mastering the calls themselves. Hopefully this is somewhat helpful and best of luck if you're still hunting this spring!
When another hen comes in the picture I always heard to mimic her exactly. Same number of cuts and yelps or clicks and purrs or whatever calls she does. And the same amount of emotion as the hen. If she is very aggressive you can get more aggressive.
Thanks for the video.! I am curious on what brand of diaphragm call you are using. I'm constantly looking for what I feel is a better sound. I have found diaphragms that are nice and raspy and others that work well for purring. But I have been having trouble finding one that sounds right and is responsive when you do some aggressive cuts and clucks. The tone on your video sounds spot on for cutting. What brand and style are you using?
If I'm working a Bird on the roost my first calls are roost chirps. Chirps are low volume calls but if the Bird responds stop calling go silent this will keep the Gobbler from flying down in the opposite direction. Too many times i have hunters say" the Turkey answered and Gobbled on the Roost but flew down and walked away gobbling. Too much Gobbling is not a Good thing when the Tom is on the roost.
You left out the thumping sound that a tom turkey makes. It's hard to find anyone that will post that sound but I've heard it. I don't think it would be called a 'call' yet it seemed to be more like a deep throbbing sound of contentment that the male made. It was exquisite to hear.
Yes that is called drumming, male turkeys will make that sound when they are in full strut. It is a very unique sound and very cool to hear in the woods!
@@Whitetail_Properties I was in Pennsylvania and there was a large male layi against the glass by a downstairs window that was on ground level. I keep hearing the sound like this low deep drumming sound and I thought what the heck is that so I followed the sound. I could see the turkey laying outside the window but it couldn't see me and I stood there and listen to it for an hour. It was just echoing in the cement basement. One of the most lovely sounds I've ever heard. That turkey was just laying there very content. Later I caught pictures of two males fighting, ripping their necks apart. Wow. I've never killed an animal but that was a sight to behold. I now love turkeys.
I accidentally discovered the drum sound on my first Tom. Called him down and as soon as he came within sight of the hen decoy he began strutting and thumping his chest as he approached . I never had a clue they made that sound but I knew it was him. Some sounds I don’t think are necessary and I’m probably gonna let that one go until I master the rest.
One of the better videos I’ve ever seen explaining calls properly. Nice job buddy!
Appreciate that!! Good luck the rest of the season!
This spring is going to be my first steps and attempt to learn turkey hunting. This video has been an amazing source. Thank you so much.

Good luck brother, ima try aswell on my lease and private property
I’m trying to start this year too, feelin quite lost still. Many questions i can’t seem to fully find the answers to

Have fun! It is addicting and fun to watch the woods and fields come alive!!
A lot of people don’t know about the fly down cackle. The best sound is box call. But most realistic is mouth call and a wing
The first sound to get turkey to gobble is to slam the door to your truck.
Don’t forget the broken stick on your way to the spot😂
Also heard that draws in big bucks too. Weirddd. 😂
This is true!

Great stuff. Love the natural approach and mimicking what they do. Thank you.
Awesome breakdown on when to use different calls. Appreciate to tips!
Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching, and good luck the rest of the spring!
Very good instructions. Love it
Well done Matt.
Excellent tutorial! Helped me much!
Thank you very much.
Glad to hear it! Good luck this spring!

Very good information. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you. Very helpful!
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!
Great video with a lot of valuable information and insights. I've watched it 3 or 4 times already, Much appreciated!
That is great to hear! We hope you can put it to work in the woods this spring!
Thank you very much for you time and help. Which cut of diaphram and make were you using ??
Rolling thunder - money maker which is a batwing call!
This video helps a ton. How do you purr with a diaphragm call?
Try rolling your tongue without the call in and the replicate that with the call in.
This is a awesome video
Thanks!
They can hear that on a clear day with leaves on probably 150 to 200 yards away and further with no leaves on the trees. Tree yelps that is.
Yup!
Great video, well done
Thanks for watching!
Really good
all pets turkey started screaming at me after that
Great video! What’s the brand name of the pot and friction calls?
Slate call was a zink anodized aluminum and the box call was walnut from David Halloran.
I have two broadbreasted white hens and they always bark at me 😂💜
Lol!
Lol!
What brand of call do you recommend, use? Where to get the feather you use in the video?
Dave Holloran makes great calls, but there are many good call companies out there. Just have to try a few and see what works for you.
What truck should we buy
Nice
When another hen comes in the picture I always heard to mimic her exactly. Same number of cuts and yelps or clicks and purrs or whatever calls she does. And the same amount of emotion as the hen. If she is very aggressive you can get more aggressive.
Pretty good rule of thumb for sure!

Thanks for watching! Matt was using a rolling thunder money maker or game changer.
Dave Owens. Pinhoti project Turkey calls. Grey ghost best call I've ever used! I highly recommend
Wood haven is a great budget brand with great quality

Just have to read the birds body language in each situation.
If you should read this comment please do a video of a hen with poults, danger, come to me (Mama) etc
We will keep that idea in mind!
Like it. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
I hatch wild Turkeys every spring and I would like to learn how a hen sounds calling her poults.....?
How do you get one of the turkey fans?
That's a wing off of a turkey. You can hit your hat on your leg to mimic a fly down.
Shut my eyes I should loose my ass if I was betting that is a live Turkey

@@TakeTheRide We do too! They are beautiful birds!
Please try to capture that sound and let me know when you do because I could not find any recordings of it.

Why can't you look into the camera doing your calling...lol
