During my hunting heyday, I became enthralled with turkey hunting. There weren’t many wild turkeys in West Virginia at the time, but the population was recovering.

My interest piqued when the birds started appearing on my grandfather’s farm, where I had been hunting deer, squirrels and rabbits for years. One summer I was lucky enough to stumble upon a hen and her poults while I had my camera and snapped of few pictures of the young turkeys.

As my fascination with wild turkeys increased, I started hunting them. I loved the thrill of trying to lure a gobbler within shotgun range by talking like a turkey. I attended a seminar on turkey hunting and spent some time outside the pen of a neighbor’s domestic turkey trying to learn the language with my own voice rather than using manufactured calls.

I learned to gobble fairly well but never could cluck like a hen. These brothers can do it all — and they know how to have fun doing it:

No artificial calls or musical instruments were used to make those videos. The brothers, Phil and Lee Edmonds, used only their own voices. Now that’s some enlightened redneck talent.
