I've hunted trumpets from nearly a dozen callmakers in the past dozen years, I've arrived at the four which I hunt constantly (there's a fifth recently acquired last fall, but that callmaker wishes to remain anonymous...). The rest I've owned were traded.

Austin Bott adjustable. Probably the most underrated callmaker out there today whose calls will run shoulder to shoulder with the other big names:

Ralph Permar .45. Like Bott's, these are the two easiest drawing trumpets I've owned.

For a Jordan, its Mark Sharpe. A unique tone which birds seem to hit routinely:

And Tony Ezolt's wing bone. Best in class:
(https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/39384863290_b304eba670_w.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/231iHH5)

Can't pick one, because they all rotate through the vest during the spring and fall seasons, though Bott's gets the tip of the hat because of its sound, ease of play, and obvious versatility especially in the fall.

Way to hard of a question. I like most of them. Here is a solid bargain for price and playability. There are many others as well and sorry I am only sharing 1 but the price is a little lower so here you go. Ernie Fetters

I hunt with and kill turkeys with lots of different trumpets but this one goes with me every time I go.  One of a kind by Mark Prudhomme. It's a killer.
