I sorted through my calls today and took some pics of my scratch boxes. Probably the most overlooked call in the woods in my opinion. I was at Unicoi in early January and the one call I ran there that I could not buy was a Neil Cost style all-cedar scratch box that Lamar let me run. It was already sold or would have come home with me.

Nice collection Rickey!
Agree Rickey. Last bird I killed in the big woods ate up Bob Fulcher's little scratcher made from Dick Kirby's wood pile. Too special of a call to go in the woods anymore! Highly overlooked tool.
I probably have a half dozen or more. Deadly little call.
I will second that it is a sickness or rather an appreciation of finely crafted turkey killers! Nice collection!
Nice collection.
Nice collection. I like them a lot myself, scratch box and wing bones were the first out of the ordinary (For my area anyway) calls I ever got and I really like the scratch boxes. Hoping to get a few more before next season.
Nice looking scratch boxes. Love the sound that a good one makes in the woods....and a lot easier to carry than all the other stuff I tend to tote into the woods.
Rickey, An awesome collection of scratch box calls but you have an awesome collection of great turkey calls :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:
Nice calls!!
I've only used scratchers a few years now. My collection is big enough I don't wanna pose em all n lets suffice to say they'll never all get hunted. When I first started Al from SS told me I'd prob have scratchers as a go to call. I kinda wasn't sure. Now just years later it's prob the calls I use the most.

I have a scratch box in my vest on every hunt I go on. There's a Basehore all-cedar in that group that has accounted for some really nice gobblers.

Well I hope you get a big one w em this year!!
Wow! That's a great collection
I had a Neil Cost all cedar and sold it. But I would never sell my Basehore all cedar. One was $500 and one was $50. Go figure.
Thanks for sharing, I love seeing all the different makers
Great bunch of scratchers. Gotta love their sweet, pure sound!
Nice! That's some serious scratching!!
There's one in there you don't see much and it's a nice little call. That's the Gary Herd one...I haven't killed a bird with it yet but I'm sure I will. That's a sweet little scratcher...
I have 36 scratchers myself and have an Eric Rice on order. Can't get enough of them. Cool little calls and effective!
