Right now its looking like;

Platz cherry glass over glass
Brad Roberts cedar green slate over glass
Lonzo bullet tree bronzed glass over slate
Stumpy sycamore ceramic over glass
Watkins ebony over butternut
Watkins mora over mulberry

Not 100% on the mora over mulberry, if its not that it will be another real raspy box like ebony over persimmon or bloodwood over apple

I will probably take my Watkins coaxer call too, but I need to figure out some sort of slim case to put that in, being it will likely go in a cargo pocket on the vest.

Matt...it's 2019...time to lose the vest and get on the Glenda Green bandwagon...it's a call junkie dream as you can fit so many more calls in it and easy to use, isn't hot like a vest (although that's probably not an issue for where you live).  But seriously, one of the best pieces of hunting equipment out there.

I like the nostalgia of the vest :)

I do need to get one of Glenda's man purses though. I love well built american made hunting gear.

definitely a nice man purse lol...I get interesting looks when i'm hiking at the park with it when I go off into the woods to make soundfiles if I can't get away to the ranch.

I'm trying to convince myself into only carrying one of my Buice Trumpets. I really want to work a turkey start to finish with one of them. My guess is that I will also carry a Mabry walnut slate, a Watkins bloodwood over beach fiddle box and a Woodhaven toxic orange mouth call, though.

Why wouldn't you carry a Buice trumpet?
