It's a Lynch's World Champion, Birmingham, AL boxcall. It's a "collector". I've never hunted it.

The longest standing "user" call...........one I always have in my vest...........is a Hally Caller Deluxe boxcall. I believe I got it in 1990. I have no clue how many toms it's seen die. It's share.

Re: What\'s your oldest call.............

I still have an old Lynch Jet slate call from the 70's. I retired it when I saw and bought the 1st round pot slate call I saw. The oldest call I have that I still use on occasion is a Lynch Deluxe Fool Proof 1982 Series Box Call. I think they quit making the deluxe series calls about 20 years ago. It's a rare occasion for me to use a box call anymore except for hunting Merriam turkeys. I've only made 2 Merriam turkey hunts and that box call accounted for the 3 Merriam turkeys I've killed. All in all I've probably killed about 5 or 6 birds with that call. Sorry I've never kept up with the numbers.

I used to be real bad about buying new calls every year and switching and swaping back and forth between them. I wish I still had the frames of some of the old Primos diaphram calls I had. When he used to make them out of his house he would write on each call the amount he stretched the membrane. Those would definately be collectors items today.
