Get the full set of Lovett Williams CDs. Listen, mimic & compare by recording with your cell phone. A trick for instant playback is to use a second phone connected to a bluetooth speaker set across the yard. There will be a slight delay before the speaker plays back to you.
But, really, just listen to a recording of a live bird and practice matching it. If you use a pot call, check out Sadler McGraw's youtube videos.

This is from a callmaking forum. I have a friend who makes Turkey box calls. He has recorded a flock of Turkeys specifically the sounds the Turkey make during breeding season. He ran the recorded calls through a spectrum analysis program and plotted the spectrum. What he learned is that no 2 Turkeys sound exactly the same but they are all within a narrow band of sound for similar calls. My friend tests his box calls to make sure the sounds they make are within the Turkey spectrum of sounds. He is also the best Turkey hunter/caller I know.

Thanks for sharing the info dogcatcher. I have had gobblers turn and run from my area after using the call. There have been times when they 4 to 6 gobblers came running. I never knew what I did incorrectly or correctly in these 2 cases.

I never knew what I did incorrectly or correctly in these 2 cases. That doesn't mean anything, I have them answer the squeaky screen door on our cabin. Their eyesight is a lot better than ours, it could have been your movement.
