Calling to loud?

[backstraps]

I have often wondered the same... but from my observations of hens calling, they can be extremely loud!

Especially after first fly down, or when you agitate a boss hen trying to get her to pull a gobbler into range.

I guess my answer is timing dependant but I also love crystal and hard strikers and don't think we can be as loud as a big mouthed hen :)

I love cutting boss hens off before there done calling. How loud depends. You got to feel the birds what they want. It's a feeling. I've screamed in windy conditions and sweet talked. Let them tell you.

On birds that are worked over on our public loud wont cut it come May. I go super soft n have had very good luck with it. Soft with alot of time in between. Ramping up the volume just enough occasionally to let em know im there. He wont gobble but once or twice n usually sneaks in pretty quiet .

I am loud and aggressive a lot... I find that you can waste a whole day, or at least several hours on a bird that has little interest. I think its better for me to keep moving and not hang up on a bird that won't come to me. They are moody creatures and hitting him in the right mood is the key. If a bird is real big, or there are few to chase well then yea, I would slow down, quiet down, and play longer... But, if you have the ground to support it, I call loud and somewhat heavy and either kill or move. If nothing else, I have a lot of action and few boring hunts.

Also depends on if you are in a tent blind. Gotta call louder if in a tent blind.
