I’ve been out of commission for two weeks with a surgery, so I’ve watched every “Pinhoti Project” video on the web!

What brand calls does that rascal use??

He makes his own diaghrams

Yep...it's a ghost cut that he makes and probably tweaks it/customizes it

That is correct

He makes me feel bad about about my calling lol but I still kill a few.

That's what I figured. Good grief they sound good. I'm like y'all said, I'm way out of practice today, but I used to think I was the best in the world. He makes me realize I was bad wrong!

And Chubbs makes this perfect little high-pitched putt/cluck...just a cross between "pleep" and "plurp", sheesh it sounds ALIVE!!!

The success he consistently has on public ground in Alabama is nothing short of amazing

I've learned a lot of from watching him and chubbs. They are stone cold killers.

Correct, but they both wear Southwood7 pajamas

What I like most is they hunt how I hunt(ed). A bunch of their hunting is on Choccolocco WMA, which is only 10 mins from me. They hunt in the woods, big hardwood ridges. I hate how TV is always in fields, with decoys, etc. They'll be set up calling, the turkey will gobble and give them a quick location, they'll jump and close the distance and set up again.....I love that, it's how we do it! Not sure if he still lives around here, but Chubbs is from Anniston, his stepfather used to be my dentist.

Ha! Not even close! Dave is like the Michael Jordan of turkey hunting and I’m not even Scottie Pippen 😂

Break the calls out and start chasing them again. I don’t see how one could be as passionate as you say you were about turkey hunting and then quit!

I didn’t even realize turkeys made sounds like they make sometimes. It blows my mind. I try and replicate all of that and can’t do any of it!

I know, I wonder that myself a lot. I always say it's because turkeys stopped gobbling, but according to their videos it's not true! Also, The Hunting Public did their "Turkey Tour '19" starting at Choccolocco WMA this year, the first 7 days of season, I was shocked! Catman was with them and he put out a couple of vids too, those suckers had turkeys gobbling all hours of the day. No they weren't smokin' it gobbling, but enough so that you could hunt them. (As much as anything, I got way deeper into fishing as I've gotten older, and March/April is prime time for bass and tournaments. Gotta justify that $$$$ Ranger somehow! )

Good Luck!

I understand that IKB, I have several buddies the don’t turkey because they love fishing more.

If Dave is the Jordan, and you are Pippen, then I reckon I'm this guy...

I picked up lots of tips watching Dave. The biggest was how close they were able to get to roosted birds before daylight. I have killed turkeys by simply being on the strutting zone before they flew down. With the proximity to the roost tree, I wouldn't have even tried to get there in the past. Instead, I would try to call them to where I could set up safely without spooking them. The past results were not very impressive. It amazes me how close they get to gobbling birds before setting up. When this is possible, the odds of killing that tom increase exponentially. I am still a mediocre turkey hunter but I am improving.

Biggest thing I learned from watching Dave is how much to pay attention to terrain and use it to your advantage. It has also changed my calling style dramatically.

changed it in what ways??
