[QUOTE="younggun308, post: 5273086, member: 4042"] Early season will probably be completely hit or miss because you’re competing with live, unbred hens. But you’ll hear lots of gobbling, and there’s nothing like hearing it when you’re “licensed to kill” on a cool early April morning. It’s my favorite time of season because the woods feel alive. Get a turkey choke. Sumtoy and Indian Creek are fantastic custom options. You can talk to someone at either about ideal constriction depending on what load you will be shooting. Basic lead loads show up on Wal-Mart shelves within the next 2 months. So keep checking, and stock up when you get the chance (at least three 10-round boxes of 3” magnums). Then you at least have several years’ supply—you don’t shoot near as many rounds turkey hunting as you do wingshooting, thankfully. Mouth calls are cheap and hands-free, so experiment with a few. Pot calls (especially slate with a wooden striker) are probably the most comfortable. [/QUOTE]
