SS field grade kwila over butternut.  You're welcome.

X2. Killer wood combo from Al and Josh.

Looking up some of the names mentioned in this thread and I just realized that Ernie Fetter is less than an hour from me, going to have to see if I can go there and look at some of his calls one day. Hope he will be at the Call Makers Summit at Turkey Trot this year.

Better have some cash in hand because you will want them all. LOL!

David Halloran makes a great box at a reasonable price

ferocious calls

My first custom call was made by myself. Ferocious calls. Lots of dust since then. Not producing the volumes as past years due to life's twists and turns. Still making the wood talk though.

X3 I was playing mine a couple days ago and for the money it is very hard to beat.

I fear you are correct.

Another plug for SS Custom Calls. The Field Grade might be one of the best deals on the market. I have a walnut over poplar that just sounds great. At my request, one side is higher pitched, not much rasp like a younger hen. The other side is deeper, more "mature" sounding. Just quality box calls at a more than reasonable price. Just don`t have all the checkering and pretty stuff. They are hunting calls.

Spitten and drummen

Marlin watkins fiddle box would get my vote.
