It will make a turkey gobble but I think your space in the who cooks for you is to long.

As good as a hoot stick can be made to sound, in the long run, you are better off learning to hoot and crow with your mouth. Two less calls to carry and worry about losing.

Not bad at all.. Only thing I can say is to be more realistic slow your roll by using gargle method like purring instead of fluttering tounge.. With that being said I flutter my tounge..

Most folks tend to drag the final gargly note out too long. This video did as well, seems to me. Also, too long a wait between the first four notes and the last four.
