To me it’s important to have a long box that can be used for soft talk to bring him those last few yards. Soft yelps, clucks, etc. I hunt calls by Dan Wittenberg, Steve Mann and Billy Bush for that reason. Marlin Watkins, Ernie Fetters, SS, Jeff McKamey and others make good calls as well.

I think it's hard to beat a Billy Bush call, they are top notch.

Roger Parks makes a fine one as well, it's all turkey!!

Buy one or both of the fetters in the classifieds. Great call at a great price.

All the names mentioned so far are top notch, but I have a special affinity for Ralph Snodgrass's long and mini boat boxes. Ralph's boxes when he first started building them went past Neil Cost for his feedback and guidance, so there's that little tidbit.

Any of the above would certainly take care of your needs. I would add a good used Frank Kruer long box to the list.
