SAD DAY FOR TURKEY FORUM
« on: August 08, 2011, 09:56:56 PM »
I am flopping the turkey calling contest.. I had many people PM me when I posted information about doing a calling contest. Many of the PM's stated that people wouldn't participate because they had too much to risk or that there were a lot of great call makers but not a lot of great callers.. this is not me stating this but others and I refused to believe the comments because I know some folks on this site who are much better than myself..This is why I thought an anonymous contest would fit the bill.. anyways...There will be no calling contest.. we had over 500 looks but only 2 people willing to show there skills..I was really excited at seeing others calling skills...Maybe when we get closer to the turkey season...

I think it sounds like a great idea :) As long as it stays uncomplicated and fair!

There would have to be some basic guidelines like length of sound file, perhaps certain calls (i.e. yelp, cluck, purr...).  I would possibly be interested.  You could do it head to head style and have a brackett...could be interesting.

anyone interested in doing a calling contest for box, slate, and suction calls.  [/color]

You forgot tube calls.  *up*  I would take a stab at that catagory. I am no pro that is for sure but it sound like this could be kind of fun.
