In this episode, we sit down with legendary turkey caller and hunter Scott C. Ellis for a deep dive into the art and science of turkey calling—covering everything from subtle hen talk to aggressive sequences and the smart use of locator calls. Whether you’re a beginner trying to sound more realistic or a seasoned hunter looking to fine-tune your approach, this conversation is packed with practical, field-tested insight.
Scott breaks down calling techniques that actually work in real hunting scenarios, not just on stage. He explains when less is more, how to read a gobbler’s mood through his response, and why cadence and timing matter just as much as volume.
The conversation then shifts to locator calls—owl hooters, crow calls, woodpeckers, and more. Scott shares when and how to use locators to strike gobbles without educating birds.
Throughout the episode, Scott mixes in real-world stories, hard lessons learned, and simple drills hunters can practice right now to improve their calling confidence. If you want to sound more natural, call with intention, and use locators strategically instead of randomly, this episode delivers a masterclass from one of the most respected voices in turkey hunting.
