Found this this fellar (already DOA)the other evening while trying to kill tree rats.

 So I carried him home and utilized his exoskeleton to make one heck of a turkey killing machine. My first pot call you could say!!!

I've made a few of those calls myself Shannon. It should make a good un. I used the thin chalk board slate available at Hobby Lobby stores. Traced it to the bottom of the shell then glued it with epoxy or Goop. Simple to make but deadly on turkeys.
