[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1555674, member: 2736"] Most experienced Turkey hunters that I know carry more than one type of call because turkeys can and do like different call sounds after a few weeks of being hunted. Mouth calls are just one call in the tool belt and different calls work in different conditions and seasons.I personally carry at least three different type of calls because I have found that Sometimes turkeys just won't respond to a call sometimes and switching to a different call gets there attention. Where I hunt, they are pressured and become weary of a call that they hear more than once or twice. buy switching calls with different tones some times they can be fooled. An example is that I use two different box calls(One small and one large) and times they will respond to one and not the other. I am sure that some of the reason is my prowess with the call. but sometimes the change can mean the difference in success or failure. Also once they get call shy, we will split up and call for each other so the turkey Is looking for the caller (Who is well hid and doesn't have to move) and and the shooter can get a shot. sometimes we have to resort to an electronic call placed 30 to 40 yards away if hunting buy our selves because the turkeys will come in without making a sound and will/can spot any movement the shooter has to make unless he is concentrating on the call. So I feel that one call is not enough or the best one on any given day and sometimes there just isn't a call they want, so I carry as many calls as i can to improve my odds. Bow hunting adds another challenge to turkey hunting because you have to move just to draw the bow and if the turkey is not distracted by the call location, you chances are slim to none. Some hunters are very good with one type of call or another, I am not very good with a mouth call but have had success with one at times. and other times with other calls. So I don't handicap my self with just one call, especially near the end of the season because they have heard every call. Mouth calls are very good at times but not where I hunt. Just a recommendation not to place all your efforts in one call. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
