Joebuck listed one of his Wooden Hen scratch-box turkey calls for sale recently, and I bit. I have to say that I've never had a call that sounded any better than this one before, and I've had lots of turkey calls. I found it to be easy to learn to make the basic yelps and clucks, and Joey supplies it with multiple strikers to get different tones. The clucks are the best I've ever heard. I can't wait to get it in the woods! My wife has threatened to throw me out if I keep practicing in the house. :)
Thanks, Joey! Hope you have fun at PBS this weekend. I want another one of those calls for a friend.
Regardless of what Biggie and Marty say about him...that Joey's alright! :eek: :notworthy:

Thanks Don for the kind words... I offered one to PBS on Saturday for the bucket table but it didn't work out.....got one for St.Jude i hope will be pleasing to the eye and ear.
Boys at the PBS missed the boat. Got one of Joey's scratch calls too. First few attempts I was ready to send it back BUT I read the instructions and started over. Hold it loosely and let it talk, it sounds grrrreat. NY turkeys are in trouble in May.
Joebucks..............a real turkey whisperer!!!!
John...that's to funny. Joeys call is no joke that thing produces some of the most realistic clucks and yelps I have heard. Thanks Joey! :clapper:
Thanks David...i'm working as we speak on some Wooden Hens.....I makin John Dill a special one..with a purple striker ,it will keep the neighbors dogs howling and purr like a 30# spaded house cat.....
Joey-
That lecture you gave for PBS was fantastic, it was by far one of the most informative and definitely the funniest of any of the daytime seminars. Thanks for 'fixin it up rite'. I may have to start giving Mississipians more of a break.
David
Thanks David......i really enjoy doing them. I wished i had more time to talk and demostrate more on calling, especially on mouth calls and calling on pressured birds. My only regret was my 2 young sons did not get there till late friday night after school and missed it....us MS boys need a break!.....Pikeville,TN...you know my brother Doug Besherse?
Joey
I can't wait!!! I hope I can make some birds dance with it!!!!
I'm practicing my purrs and driving my family crazy. Hopefully I can do the same with the turkeys.LOL We'll find out in a couple weeks down at Ray Hammonds place. :bigsmyl: :pray:
David, I don't think those Mississippi calls will work on SC birds. All I could call up with mine here in GA. was 2 game wardens.
Joeys yelper goes "yelp, yelp, yelp...ya'll".
Biggie, those game wardens can be pretty big turkeys sometimes.LOL
There are no birds on my place this year so far, but I'm going up to Missouri for the opener in a couple of weeks, and I'll give that Wooden Hen a workout up there. Biggie, I sure hope it works outside of Mississippi! Guess I better take a backup, just in case...
