No one brand is better than the other. Despite what many will tell you. I have 3 box calls, all good, each just has its own sound - just like each hen does.
hoochie mama equivalent would be more like a push pin call. I don’t use one but many guys do. They are not that popular.
One other thing I’ve learned is that while turkeys do return to roosting sites, they also change sites unpredictability and on a regular basis. Have seen this many times. Probably more a factor with public land birds than private birds that are being fed. There are some interesting studies coming out proving this.
Don’t assume that because you roosted a gobbler he’ll be back there every night.
Super good podcast by Meateater Ep 214 the Gobbler Nut. Talks a lot about behaviors and why turkeys do what they do. Granted he's talking about easterns but still a lot of tips and tricks in there to pick up on. Worth the listen for any turkey hunter.
