Most versatile type of turkey call?

[Cab]

I like zink mouth calls.  Also you can trim the tape to fit your mouth better.

ok I see what I was doing wrong, I was getting the budget friendly ones and should bump up to a nicer call. Thanks for the brand tip

I've had great luck with Phelps turkey calls.

I have to try one of Jason's calls.   Going to Nashville in a couple weeks for the NWTF national convention.  Might find some the to.

I've had quite a few calls over the last ten years, some expensive, some cheap. My go to call is my primos alumislate (very cheap call)... I can't tell you how many times I have ran through a few different calls, only to switch to my alumislate and get immediate gobbles. Overall, slate calls are my favorite.. but once the birds start closing distance, mouth calls are nice to cut down movement and close the deal. Like others have said, one call can't do it all, it's nice to have options in the field with you.

@Cab,  I really like Phelps, but his calls fit my pallet without needing modification.  Called in multiple birds with his diaphrams. As far as previous ones I have used, Primos and HS but that was chasing Easterns in Illinois.  Test a few and find a couple you can run well.  Then pick up a few of those models.  I have done this with both turkey and elk reeds.

I've got a dozen pot calls, and the Alumislate is my favorite as well.

I have heard nothing but good about Phelps mouth calls and have a few friends that use them. Been waiting to see if he’s going to build Pot calls again.

If your choosing only one go with the diaphram. It takes practice to master it. I do all of my practicing while driving which you can't do with other calls.

This.

Just talking turkey calls is getting me all fired up for turkey hunting, I gotta dust off my stuff and get practicing! Think I'll trying the Phelps call this year since I've never tried it.

Whats everyone favorite locator call? I like to use crow but I notice that actual real life ravens really fire up toms, to bad no one makes a raven call.

Hey Cab
I really like my Faulks Crow call normally works great. Pilleated Woodpecker works good as well. The Coyote howlers work good in fact we were hunting one year out of Chewelah and had an ol Gobbler start going horse one morning when the Yotes fires off. He must havegobbled for 15 minutes straight.

Ive had way better luck with using a loud hen yelp vs. other animal calls. The key word is LOUD and has to sound real.

Here are a few sound files that are good examples of locator call sequences (its not me playing in the video) The dude's whole youtube channel is full of them:

When nothing else works because the birds have been hunted so hard, one of those air blast horns will get a bird to give up a gobble.
