For starter and a new hunter, have two calls, the first is a Box call for the hen yelps and clucks. Use the blue carpenter chalk knobs for lubricating the paddle.Second call is either a tube call like a "widow maker" by Knight & Hale, or a slate call.

Learn to call softly and short duration, don't try to call to the next county over.

Good Luck.
