Here at theturkeycall.com we
are proud to offer Bristol Game Calls at reasonable prices as well as
hand-made calls created by other masters in the sport such as owl
hooters by Missouri award winning call maker, Niles Oesterle.
Considered by veteran turkey hunters to possibly be the finest
owl hooters on the market, Oesterle hooters are crafted from solid oak
and built to last for generations.
With so many mass-manufactured calls on
the market hunters are beginning sound alike and hunters who search out
calls that set them apart from the crowd have increased their chances
for success. The Bristol New Englander model slate over glass is
offered in walnut, red cedar and zebra wood. It's unique design allows
hunters to vary the pitch and tone of the call and you'll never have to
search for slate cleaners again. Our cleaners are attached to the end
of each striker top.

Also, because of the solid
slate over glass with air and sound vents on the underside, the
specialized sound chamber this combination creates, allows the user to
moderate tones in pitch and inflection. Our calls are "hand made" and "tuned"
by notable sportsman writer
Stu Bristol.
Stu became a member of the newly-formed National Wild Turkey Federation
in 1974 and elevated to a Life member in 1984. Since then, he has
written two books on wild turkey restoration and hunting and dozens of
newspaper and magazine articles on the topic. "Stu Bristol's Guide to
Vermont Wild turkey Hunting" and "Hunting Wild Turkeys in New England"
are currently recognized as classic collectibles and are zealously
sought after on e-Bay and other collectors' forums. His clinics and
wild turkey hunting schools continue today and hunters come from all
over the Northeast to learn the sport.
"My stage is the turkey woods and I play a variety of roles, just like
a stage or movie actor." Says veteran Maine game call maker, New
England wild turkey hunting pioneer, Stu Bristol. With nearly 40 years
in the sport of wild turkey hunting and call making even novice turkey
chasers can reproduce the vocalizations so critical to luring a big
gobbler to shotgun or bow range, using a Bristol Game Call product.
