I like to be what I call ''DELIBERATE'' in my calling .
I deliberately make Higher pitches , in the spring , to not give the gobbler any excuse for mistaking my call for another gobbler. I do the same in the fall when I'm attempting to work a hen .A sassy, loud, young hen can really make an older girl mad.
When I'm targeting fall gobblers it's Deep'n'Slow croaking yelps ,,, again , theirs no mistaking. Also , a mite slower than hen , but still coarse, is some gobbler cutts.
And as someone else said ''DEEP , HOLLOW GOBBLER CLUCKS'.
But , as you know , there is nothing set in stone concerning turkeys . I was yelping like a gobbler and had a hen respond . I ignored her and after a few minutes I yelped again like a gobbler . She called back again . I change my position by 40-50 yards and began calling to her like a younger hen . She , and 8 other hens ran hard to get to me .
Good hunting
