Unlock Your Turkey Hunting Potential with the H.S. Strut Double Gobble Turkey Call

Are you an avid turkey hunter looking for the ultimate edge in locating and luring those elusive gobblers? Do you often find yourself frustrated by silent mornings or birds that just won't commit? The key to a successful turkey hunt frequently lies in speaking their language, and few tools do it as effectively and authentically as a versatile gobbler call. The H.S. Strut Double Gobble Turkey Call, available at DEGuns, is engineered precisely for this purpose, offering unparalleled adaptability to mimic both the aggressive challenge of a mature tom and the inquisitive cluck-and-gobble of a young jake. This innovative call is designed to solve common hunting dilemmas, providing hunters with a powerful instrument to elicit responses and draw birds into optimal shooting range, transforming frustrating outings into memorable triumphs.

The Power of the Gobble: Why This Call is Essential for Every Turkey Hunter

Understanding turkey vocalizations is fundamental to successful hunting. While hen yelps and purrs are crucial for attracting mates, the gobble serves a different, equally vital purpose: communication among males and territorial assertion. A gobble from a dominant tom signals his presence and often challenges other males. For a hunter, mimicking this sound can trigger a competitive response, prompting a real gobbler to reveal his location or even storm in to confront the perceived intruder.

The H.S. Strut Double Gobble excels in this domain because it doesn't just make a generic gobble sound; it allows hunters to produce the specific vocalizations that are most likely to provoke a reaction from different birds. Are you trying to pinpoint a distant bird? A loud, sharp gobble can make him sound off. Do you have a hang-up gobbler that needs a final push to come into range? A jake gobble can often be the perfect bait, appealing to the dominant tom's instinct to intimidate younger rivals. This nuanced capability is what sets the Double Gobble apart, making it an indispensable tool for advanced strategy and adaptability in the field. It’s not just a call; it’s a strategic advantage, giving you the ability to adapt your approach based on the specific behavior of the birds you are targeting.

Unveiling the H.S. Strut Double Gobble: Features That Elevate Your Hunt

The H.S. Strut Double Gobble is more than just a simple turkey call; it's a meticulously designed instrument that addresses the multifaceted demands of turkey hunting. Its core innovation lies in its dual functionality and user-friendly operation, ensuring that hunters of all experience levels can wield it effectively.

Two Ways to Gobble: Unmatched Versatility for Any Scenario

One of the most significant advantages of the Double Gobble is its ability to produce two distinct gobble types:

• One-Handed (Shake) for Jake Gobbles: This intuitive method allows for quick, discreet jake gobbles. Young, subordinate gobblers frequently make jake gobbles, and these sounds can be incredibly effective at drawing in a dominant tom. Why? Because a mature gobbler views a jake as a potential rival or a subordinate that needs to be put in its place. A jake gobble can also sometimes be less intimidating to a wary tom than a full-blown mature gobble, encouraging him to investigate without feeling directly challenged by a perceived equal. This one-handed operation is ideal when you need to maintain stealth or hold a shotgun simultaneously. It’s perfect for those close-quarters situations where movement is minimal, but a convincing gobble is needed to seal the deal.
• Two-Handed (Pump) for Mature Gobbles: For those times when you need to project power and dominance, the two-handed pumping action allows you to create robust, resonant mature gobbler sounds. This deep, authoritative call is excellent for striking distant birds, proclaiming your presence, or directly challenging a known tom. It mimics the full, aggressive gobble of an older, more established male turkey, which can often provoke a territorial response from other dominant birds. This method provides the necessary control to produce a full range of mature gobbles, from short, sharp bursts to extended, echoing pronouncements that carry across vast distances.

This dual-mode operation ensures you have the right call for every situation, whether you're trying to locate a bird at dawn, challenge a strutting tom, or coax a hesitant gobbler into range.

Patented Silencer Cap: Stealth and Confidence in the Field

A common challenge with many gobbler calls is accidental activation, which can ruin a hunt by spooking nearby birds. The H.S. Strut Double Gobble features a patented silencer cap, a simple yet revolutionary addition. This cap securely covers the call’s sound chamber when not in use, completely preventing unwanted noise. This means you can move through thick brush, climb over fences, or store the call in your vest without worrying about an inadvertent gobble giving away your position. This small but critical feature provides peace of mind and allows you to maintain the stealth crucial for close-range turkey hunting. It ensures that every sound you make is intentional and part of your carefully planned strategy.

Durable Construction for the Demanding Hunter

Turkey hunting often takes place in rugged environments, from dense woods to open fields, often in varying weather conditions. The H.S. Strut Double Gobble is built to withstand these demands. Crafted from durable materials, it's designed to endure repeated use, accidental drops, and exposure to the elements, ensuring it remains a reliable part of your hunting gear for many seasons. Its robust construction ensures consistent performance when you need it most, whether in the early morning dew or under the midday sun.

Real-World Applications: How the Double Gobble Solves Hunting Challenges

The H.S. Strut Double Gobble isn't just a gimmick; it's a practical tool that addresses specific hunting scenarios, making your efforts more productive and enjoyable.

• Locating Distant Gobblers: In the pre-dawn hours, when turkeys are still roosted, a loud mature gobble from the Double Gobble can often elicit a shock gobble from a distant tom, revealing his exact location. This is an invaluable technique for pinpointing birds before they fly down, allowing you to set up strategically.
• Challenging Stubborn Toms: Have you ever encountered a gobbler that just won't commit to your hen calls? A well-timed jake or mature gobble can often be the trigger. If he’s a dominant bird, a jake gobble might make him curious or even aggressive enough to come investigate and assert dominance. If he’s already heard your hen calls, a different type of challenge can sometimes be the key to breaking his resolve and bringing him in.
• Closing the Distance on Hang-Up Birds: Sometimes, a tom will gobble on the limb, fly down, but then hang up just out of range, responding to your calls but refusing to approach. A soft, inquisitive jake gobble, or a challenging mature gobble, can often be the final nudge needed to bring him those last few critical yards into your shooting lane. It's about triggering a different instinct, moving beyond simple courtship.
• Creating a Realistic Scenario: When combined with hen calls and decoys, the Double Gobble helps paint a complete picture for an incoming gobbler. The presence of a "rival" jake or tom, even if only through sound, makes your setup far more convincing and irresistible to a territorial bird. This adds a layer of realism that can be crucial, especially when hunting pressured birds.

Master the Call: Tips for Using Your Double Gobble Effectively

To maximize the effectiveness of your H.S. Strut Double Gobble, consider these expert tips:

1. Practice Makes Perfect: Before heading into the field, practice both the one-handed jake gobble and the two-handed mature gobble. Experiment with different rhythms and volumes. Listen to real turkey gobbles online to fine-tune your technique. Consistency and realism are key.
2. Timing is Everything: Gobbles are most effective at specific times:
   • Pre-dawn/Roosted Birds: Use loud, clear gobbles to locate birds before fly-down.
   • Mid-morning/Locator: Use periodic gobbles to check for turkeys that might be moving or have gone silent.
   • Responding to Silence: If you hear a distant gobble, respond with a challenge. If you're not getting a response from hen calls, try a gobble to shock them into responding.
3. Vary Your Gobbles: Don't just make one type of gobble. If you're hearing jakes, mimic them. If you suspect a dominant tom, give him a mature challenge. Adapt your calls to the scenario.
4. Combine with Other Calls: The Double Gobble works exceptionally well in conjunction with other turkey calls. Use hen yelps and purrs to attract attention, and then intersperse gobbles to create a realistic social dynamic. This holistic approach can be incredibly effective.
5. Use Decoys Wisely: Pair your gobbler calls with a jake or tom decoy to create a visual and auditory threat that can often enrage a dominant gobbler and draw him in aggressively. Ensure your decoys are set up to provide a clear shot as the bird approaches.
6. Patience and Stealth: After making a gobble call, be prepared for a quick response. Remain silent and still, listening intently for a reply or the sound of approaching footsteps. Remember, turkeys have excellent hearing and eyesight.
7. Know When to Stop: Over-calling can be just as detrimental as under-calling. Once a bird is responding consistently and appears to be heading your way, sometimes silence is the best call. Let his curiosity and territorial instincts bring him the rest of the way.
