re: Anybody getting turkey sightings right now?

I don't like so many hens. They mess up a hunt before it starts I sound like the drunk fat girl at closing time on a slate or box call. Need the old boy with a few less options

Same boat with the call except for me the reeds stuck together on my diaphragm call a couple times and sounded awful. Happens at the worst times too. Even when sounding good and they’re gobbling back the hens are always right there cutting up. Hard to compete with a hen they have eyes on with you trying to outcall the actual hen. They’re gobbling hard but you have to kill them as soon as they hit the ground early otherwise they’ll get henned up fairly quick. Planning on getting about 75 yards from the roost in the morning well before light and see what happens. I’m in Holmes County, MS hunting and we haven’t noticed a decline at all with birds
