Woodhaven Real Hen Turkey Call

The Real Hen is designed for versatility, capable of producing deep, raspy yelps as well as sharp, aggressive cutts and cackles. It is tuned to mimic the natural vocalizations of a hen, making it effective for both soft calling and more intense, locator-style sequences.

The walnut trough-style box provides a deep, resonant chamber, while the Brazilian cherry lid offers the necessary hardness to create crisp, high-pitched notes. This specific pairing of hardwoods balances the call's tone, ensuring it has enough rasp on the low end and clarity on the high end.

Yes, box calls are generally considered the most user-friendly option for beginners because they require less precise mouth control than diaphragm calls. The Real Hen's consistent construction makes it easier to achieve realistic sounds with minimal practice.

Like all wooden box calls, this unit requires chalk on the contact surfaces to produce sound. You should carry a piece of chalk and reapply it to the lid and the box rails whenever the call starts to sound muted or loses its rasp.

While the hardwoods are durable, wood is a natural material that can be affected by humidity and moisture. It is best to keep the call dry, as damp wood can dampen the sound and make it difficult to produce consistent notes.
