Long Box suggestion
« on: May 05, 2023, 12:02:45 PM »
If you could only choose one longbox, what would it be? It will be a ride in the truck during the hunt call. And a display on my flytying desk the rest of the year.
A wait period is 0 concern.
Hope everyone is having a safe and successful season!!

SS custom calls from AL and Josh…. I have several long box calls from various makers and there long box is my favorite!!! They sound phenomenal and are very easy to run. That makes a big difference because some long box’s are tough to run you really have to get used to them but Al’s is the easiest I’ve ever run and sound amazing…. I actually go to the woods every day with their long box. I’ve got to where I use it more than a short box anymore.

Don't forget Don Watkins & TJ Johnson. Every wood combo I've heard, from both of them, all sound & run pure turkey.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Don Watkins, Ernie Fetters, Russell Beard and a gentleman who's name I can't recall right now but many will remember his video that had the word Lightning i.n the title. There is a picture of him and I think Don Williams sitting together and one has a card up that says Advise $1.00 the other had a card that says Good Advice $1.50 hoping someone can help me this name. Edit: Ralph Snodgrass is who I was trying to remember.

Right now I would say my TJ Johnson canarywood/butternut or Scott Witter bloodwood/butternut. Best one I’ve played but not own was Tim Bullocks first place snakewood/butternut at Nashville 2022 it was a smoker.

Great advice here.

Fetters, Mann, or Williams
