How to make a cluck turkey call

CLUCK

As a turkey hunter, you know that having the right calls in your arsenal is essential to lure in that elusive gobbler. While the yelp and kee-kee calls have their place, one call that shouldn't be overlooked is the cluck call.

What is a cluck call?

A cluck call is a short, soft, and mellow sound made by a female turkey. It's a basic vocalization that turkeys use to communicate with one another. The cluck is an important call to master because it can be used in a variety of hunting scenarios.

Why use a cluck call?

The cluck call can be used in a variety of situations. It's an excellent call to use when you've spooked a bird and want to calm it down. A series of clucks can mimic the sound of feeding turkeys, which can be an effective way to lure in a wary gobbler.

Clucks can also be used to show your presence to other turkeys in the area. If you're set up in a location and hear turkeys nearby, a few soft clucks can signal that there's another turkey in the area, which may draw them in closer.

How to make a cluck call?

To make a cluck call, start by closing your lips and exhaling softly. The sound should be mellow and subdued, with a slight rise and fall in pitch. The cluck call should be short, lasting no more than a second or two.

It's essential to practice your cluck call before heading out into the field. Try different volumes and pitches to see what works best. You can also listen to recordings of clucks made by real turkeys to get a better idea of what they sound like.

Final thoughts

The cluck call may not be as flashy as some of the other calls in your arsenal, but it's an essential technique to master. By using a cluck call, you can mimic the natural sounds of feeding turkeys and signal your presence to other birds in the area. With a little practice, the cluck call can help you bag that elusive gobbler on your next hunting trip.
