Hi all. I saw on youtube homemade turkeys callers using pill bottle and a piece of latex glove or balloon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpgNj4CUg1M. Only problem is I can't get it to work, they make it look it look easy on the vids but don't explain how to blow into it to make the right sounds. Can anyone help, or have a better design for a diy turkey caller?
Follow the buggers and wait till they roost in a tree, give it 45 minutes to an hour after sunset then shoot them out of their roost with a .22 and spotlight. Make sure you start from the bottom branches and work your way up the tree. Dead turkeys falling on top of live ones tend to spook them and make them fly off. Those stupid buggers don't fly after dark except when dead ones are falling on top of them. Peacocks are the same method but will risk flying after dark. Just make sure the peacocks don't see you. They are much smarter than the stupid turkey. Used to hunt/shoot a lot of turkeys/peacocks with me mate up Tutukaka way. Good luck.
they are dead easy to call by voice..I can get back of throat to wobble like machine gun(was going to say vibrate,but knowing your lots grubby mind...) simply call gwobble gwobble gwobble just like they do.....
apparently way back in 1800+nuts n bolts Davey Crocket was at a turkey shoot, and they werent playing ball,everytime he lined one up,they ducked head,so he lined up above then,then called and fired as head came up into sights.
That was sergeant York if I remember my old movies correctly. Gary Cooper
I've gone out at night with a pole with a noose on it, to get a turkey in a tree. Noosed the first one, who natural panicked. The rest decided to freak out and shit all at once. Unfortunately a lot were above me and I got covered.
The ones close to it, flew off and I heard two crash land and one flew into fence.
I was only after one for food so left the rest.
Never bothered using that technique again.
Best result I've had is with 12 gauge. popped up over a brow of hill, suppose they were 20m away, let rip with side by side.
3 dead, 5 incompasitated which got their necks wrung.
One further off which was injured which I cleaned up with toz 22. (was on a pest clean up on farm so carrying shorty and had 22 on sling over back)
I can call the females in with the whistle call if they are not too far away to almost within arms reach if I stay still enough or find a lonerQuote:

Pretty sure he'd shoot the last turkey n work his way forward so the trukeys in front didnt know there mates had been shot...i thinkQuote:
