Title: I do NOT have a problem.
Post by: drenalinld on September 21, 2014, 05:02:21 PM
This is a perfectly acceptable number of scratch boxes for a beginner to have! Seriously, if you don't use them you might give them some consideration. About as realistic as any call in the woods. The more I use them, the more I like them.

David,

I have not seen half of those. You have been holding out on me. Great collection for sure. The way you run a scratch box it is pretty easy to see why you like them so much.

If it's a problem then I've got one too. It's not a problem unless you admit it. :help: :help:

Your right Rickey. I had a great spring season working birds to the gun with my scratch boxes and cant wait to do it this fall.

 One of the most realistic calls in the woods IMO.  :icon_thumright:

Very underrated as well. Learn to use one and it will be a go to call.

You've been hanging out with Rickey too much.  :TooFunny: :TooFunny:
Seriously, you both have some great collections of fine turkey calls.  I love seeing them also.

Nice collection! I don't see a Lonnie Gilbert in the flock. He makes a real killer. Heard him in action this spring. Told him it made me want to strutt!

You got a good start on scratch boxes.  Just when are you going to let Rickey test them?

Congrats!

How about showing your chalk collection as well :toothy12:
You also must have a long shelf or huge storage bin or two.
Very nice collection I must admit.

I have not hunted most of these. Only been messing with scratch boxes a few years. I was mostly focused on trumpets and tubes. I do have two kills with the box elder/mahogany scratch box from pappy on gobblers that were stubborn but loved it's clucks and purrs. On afternoon kill with a Morgan Beggin Hen.

This Spring I think scratch boxes will be my first call.
