Lamar Williams has told me more than once , if I hunt one just one season I won't ever go back to a 2 sided box , And I own and hunt a pile of his short boxes , long boxes and a couple of his handled boxes.

Josh Farley makes a mean one sider that is reasonable in price and not long of a wait. 

I have one in purple heart and cedar that is a jam up box call.

If I were looking to get one in time for next season this is where I'd be looking. Josh makes a very good call.

To me one siders have the best sound. Paul Meek in Morton MS. makes a great one for around $50 to$60.

After hunting with Mr Lamar this season I immediately placed an order for a one sider. The one he was using was pure turkey!!!

Post by: Happy hooker on June 22, 2019, 01:30:47 AM
this design really does make the most sense,,a hen which is a female so any conversation coming from a source like that is sure to be one sided,,,

Does anyone have contact info for Lamar. Is he on this site? I'm not really set up for face book. Also if you don't mind saying-what price range are his box calls.

Think he told me his one sider is $500.

Lamar makes a fine one sider. He don't make many though so you better get in line if you want one.


This Cypress one sider is a killer.

Another one to consider is TJ Johnson.  He just starting making one that is a hybrid dawklns / fiddlebox design and he consulted Darrin before he started making them.  There is a video of him running it on his facebook page and it sounds like a killer to me I just called him this week and got on his list for one.

I just got a snakewood chestnut from Ed Terenfenko and its an awesome call worth the wait and price.

I hope Darrin will have some at the Unico show I would love to try his.

As a right handed person would one of these work from the top or the bottom? I hold the box/sound chamber in my left hand and operate the paddle with my right hand with two sided calls. Thanks.

Most box call makers I know, do not like making them and they charge more for them because of the time to make them.  Not sure there is any advantage to a one-sider versus a regular box call.  We all have our preferences.

I just opened my Tony Quarino one sider this weekend,,I own a nice selection of the need to know,must have call maker boxes but this Quarino one sider is the easiest box I've ever played has far has getting a nice sound. If your itching to try a one sider without spending alot give him a go.
