Rocky Mountain Hunting Calls Turkey Line Up-

This year, Rocky Mountain Hunting Calls has put a tremendous amount of research and development into their existing turkey call line up with the addition of three new tone top diaphragm turkey calls.  The One-Eyed Tweet, Sharp Tooth Jack and Black Max all feature three reeds with a light stretch on the latex making them some of the most user-friendly diaphragm calls that also create great sounds.Turkey Hunting: What’s In Your Pack?

In my opinion, it is hard to beat the tried and true Turkey Strutter Box. The wooden box contains the Volume Enhanced Tone Control (VETT) system which helps with volume enhancement, note quality and pitches. This friction call is extremely user-friendly for even the most novice of turkey hunters. To learn more visit www.buglingbull.com
