I'm joined today by my good buddy Randy Milligan.

Randy goes to work every day as a CPA where he's a principal in Arkansas, but is real

passion lies in farming for Turkey and dear it is property in Kansas.

Today we're going to discuss what he sees as an essential habitat for turkeys.

This information should be just as helpful for public land turkey hunters as it is for

people on private.

It should be a great conversation, but first let's get to some listeners questions.

The first questions we got from our listeners is what kind of calls do you like to use?

And so for me, I'll take a stab at it and then I'm going to throw it over to Randy to kind

of see how our kids kind of compare and then how they they defer.

So what kind of calls do I like to use?

Being an elk caller that's kind of transitioned over to Turkey, really have a love for Turkey.

I always have two or three diaphragms and with that said, I like to have one that's fairly

heavy, a fairly raspy call and I like to have one that's pretty clean for light subtle

calling.

I'm always going to have at least one pot call on me with a couple different strikers

and then I'm going to carry a box call.

So on those windy days out here in the Pacific Northwest we have really dense vegetation

in some of the areas we hunt and we really want to reach out and touch them.

We'll grab that high pitched, you know, loud box call.

With that said, I would say 80% of the time we're running diaphragms, but there's just

certain birds where that pot collar, that box calls kind of the ticket and you got to kind
