Guest TBryan Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? I use a lot of calls, but i usually stick with a slate that i made and a Woodhaven Jim Pollard Pro model mouth call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntn4bucks Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? I mainly hunt with custom made calls...some that I've made and others that were custom made by someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? I'm with redbeard. Whichever call the particular gobbling your working likes the best at the time. That's why I carry a vest full of calls when I'm turkey hunting. I've had more success with different kinds of slate calls but I've killed gobblers with diahram calls, box calls and gobbler calls too.

maytom Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? Tuff question? Each of us has our personal favorites. Some like mouth calls, some like Box calls, some like "pot" type of calls. Bottom line, make sure that you can work whatever call you choose as close to perfection, and you'll do fine.

Lumpy Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? I have to agree with what other guys have said. What ever call the gobblers want to hear, but it has to be a call you feel comfortable using. HOOK'S custom calls for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowtechTurkeyHunter Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? All of em I use em all sometimes on the same turkey Slate is easy to use box is loud mouth call is subtle wingbone is loud mostly use the wingbone for locating but the box workes great to. Not very good with a tube call but practicing thats what it takes is lotsa practice lots of practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntn4bucks Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? I mainly make box calls. I've been making them for several years and have talked with countless custom calls makers in order to improve my design. I start off with rough stock and go from there. Here's a couple of calls that I completed fairly recently. I'm working on several right now...actually I have 5 that I need to finish that I've already promised out.

huntn4bucks Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? Thanks. I make them in my spare time but I can usually finish one in about a week...give or take a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhunter91 Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? Yup. Whatever call the birds like that morning is what I'm using. But I carry a range of diaphragms, custom slate calls and box calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Re: whats the best type of call? The best call is the one that you can use like second nature and have good, realistic "turkey talk" come out. Style, type or brand are all pretty inconsequential.
