Re: Lausman Travel Call
My vote is; Yes sir Lausman has another Top Call.
When I couldn’t buy a gobble in North Carolina the Head Stomper still worked, I saw this bird step into a long narrow food plot to my left
nearly 300 yards with two Jake’s . Although he wouldn’t gobble every time I called to him he would strut and then move closer.
After over 40 minutes he had moved far enough to come home with me.
The call is easy to run and in my book a sure winner.

Re: Lausman Travel Call
I’ve received the call, It has been absolutely dead in my area of Ky, I’ve walked nearly 45 miles in these mountains and have heard 2 gobbles. Called in a group of 3 last Wednesday and my scope had gotten bumped off zero without me knowing and missed at 35 yards. Still after them

Re: Lausman Travel Call
Unfortunately I can’t seem to buy a bird this year, the call is fantastic, I called in 3 hens with it, gobblers are virtually non vocal here, I put in over 50 miles in the mountains and have been every day except one day of our season. Call is going in to the mail today to Bennie Gobbler

Re: Lausman Travel Call
Had some good luck on Sunday with Travel Call. Started out with travel call....Bird we were on went silent....Moved around a bit and struck on with my mouth call. Road we got set up on borders river which is about a 30 ft elevation below the rd. Birds are coming across a wide open cutover but rd is low enough we can not see....Bird had 2 jakes and 2 hens with him..Knew he had cut me off with mouth call but wouldn't gobble again...So we gave them the 15 mins of silent treatment followed by some soft clucks and purrs on the Travel call and was immediately cut off and bird was close. 2-3 mins later the real fun began....Bird strutted to within 20 yards...boom....Flopping began...over next 20 seconds bird was able to flop off edge of rd and ended up floating in River. Spent the next 30 mins waiting on him to float to where we could get down to river. Thankful for a great buddy who is taller than me to wade into river to get him. As you can see bird took a bath! Great call that sealed this birds fate!! This was in Virginia!!

Re: Lausman Travel Call
Congratulations Bennie! Love the story. That’s part of the attribute that goes with the call to the winner of the draw. Even though staulbee didn’t get a bird with it, that’s part of the story too! It’s been a challenging year for most to say the least. Wishing everyone success going forward.

Re: Lausman Travel Call
Y’all just send it back to me in KY when y’all get done with it.
Y’all might check with Steve(Hookedspur) I’m not sure he’s gonna need it again. Save someone some shipping.

Looks like you can hang on to it until the end of your season and then send it back to us.

Re: Lausman Travel Call
The travel call returned yesterday! I will schedule the drawing in the next couple of days. I have been a little tied up for the past couple of weeks with the passing of my father but we buried him Thursday and it’s now time to move on.

Re: Lausman Travel Call
Hey folks, I am going to draw for the travel call tomorrow at 11:00am. Good luck to the ones that participated. The call came home minus the conditioning stone and had a chip in it from an unfortunate drop but Karl fixed it up with a little glue and it’s ready to go.
