Never heard a turkey make this sound.

Had a pretty good morning in my blind today. Got a couple of gobblers going this morning then this ornery hen came into my setup on several different occasions to pick a fight with me and my decoys. I can honestly say I have never heard a hen make the sounds she did. What a great experience, made it worth the trip.
I did see one of the biggest Tom's I have ever laid eyes on. Called him into about 75 yards but the harem of hens he had with him kept him away from my offering. I am hoping to get a shot at him because I have to measure that fan, it was enormous. Hope you enjoy the video, I just used my cell phone so I apologize for the quality.

You'd think with all that natural calling the rest should follow. Might want to look into a pot call or diaphram for close in work. The box is good for distance the others in my opinion give softer more inticing calls close in.

That hen had covid LOL Never heard that before

Nice video Jerry!
I dont feel so bad about my calling now.
That turkey sounded worse than me!��

Panties on too tight, lol.

Now I surely understand what they mean by "the worst calls come out from turkeys mouth" [emoji1787][emoji1787]

That wasn't a box call, it was a strange mouth call my wife gave me for Christmas, I have never seen them before so I thought I would try them out. I can't stomach diaphram calls as they make me gag. These are an external mouth call you blow through. They seemed to respond well to it, just gotta master it.

I've heard them make it in spring before, I even use it sometimes to try and bring in a hen along with a gobbler of course! TC

That was pretty cool and nothing wrong with the quality of the video as well. It was a cool morning. Frost wasn't as heavy as a couple of days ago but still cool...

That's just the darndest thing I've ever seen in a lot of years of Turkey huntin'. Great video,thanks for posting.

It was definitely a first for me. She started at my calling at first light, came and went 4 times before disappearing into the bush 3 hrs later. Screaming the whole time, non stop. It made the hunt interesting.

I mix a lot of kee kees in with my calling during the first week or so of the Spring season. Seems to sometimes be that extra little bit of realism that's needed to pull in a hung up Tom. Jake yelping can have a similar effect!

Panties on too tight, lol. Too funny
I've heard that before and it's a dominant hen staking out her territory

I have also heard this before but it was from our farm raised meat turkey hen
