Friction call Gobbling.
« on: July 12, 2011, 04:17:09 PM »
Had a conversation with a Older Turkey Hunting Fellow today, he brought up Gobbling on a friction call, anyone ever heard of this ??

I heard him Gobble on a slate/slate, over the phone, I must admit, I think he has a bit to go yet.  ::)

Anyone ever heard, or has anyone or does anyone, Gobble on a friction call ??

Jeff, I assume you mean a slate, glass etc. and not a box.  I have not heard of anyone using a slate etc.

I recall seeing a fellow with a double striker that was made special for gobbling on a friction call.

 Harold Shields sells  a cool double tipped striker that will do an amazing gobble on a potcall . You can buy them from him at Tuscarora Legend  Calls or you can get them from D.D. Adams ' nephew Earl Ritzman at Mountainside Game Calls . Earl sells D.D. 's calls still . He has the rights to the caller and owns the pot molds . His prices are rediculously LOW too . I suggest buying a D.D. pot call and getting a gobber striker to go along with the one that comes with the caller . You will really like them ! Good luck !

I've never heard a gobble on any type of call that would fool me in the woods. I know a gobble-shaker tube thing will make a turkey gobble before flydown, but about anything will make him gobble if he's in the mood. I've seen a guy in Nashville with some silly gobble striker with 3 tips on it, I didn't buy one though.  ::)

a box call is a friction call and can  be used to gobble on .

With a lot of practice a gobble can be done on a pot call.

That may be the case, but the fact remains that I 've never heard a gobble produced by a person that was loud enough or convincing enough. I've heard gobbles by people that sounded real, but they all lacked intensity and volume.

I heard a gobbler last fall while I was bowhunting, and I would have sworn it was Marlin Watkins on a fiddle paddle !
