Interesting study, looking forward to the TSS version.  Really surprised he didn't choose to shoot a turkey choke!

Chicken of the woods? I have seen these, never even thought about eating. Did find Lions Mane on a tree once, took picture, did research, went back to get it and it was gone.

I would wipe it dry with a towel as best as possible and open the lid off to the side. Maybe even unscrew it and let air dry at room temperature.
I left a good box call outside once and it rained overnight. It dried out fine and sounds perfect. It was a dense wood species with a nice poly type of finish so I'm sure that helped.
Good luck to you.

Quote from: Zobo on Today at 11:00:26 AMWent out yesterday and almost got caught in a thunderstorm, I just made it back in time before getting soaked.
     Thank God because I had some calls on me  that wouldn't have weathered the storm well. And, the plastic bag I carry to protect calls in rain was filled with these edible mushrooms I found while hunting.
     Of course I wound have dumped them if I had to, but everything timed out ok. Will try tomorrow for an upgrade gobbler.  hopefully the ants aren't too bad!

I always carry a gallon ziplock bag for rain or creek crossings. Once a box call is wet it usually doesn't sound right again. I've heard of guys putting them in the oven on the lowest temp with the door cracked and drying them out?
I have a really old box call I called in my first 1/2 dozen gobblers with, I make certain to keep it dry.
