Do you mean Short box and long box, because paddle box and long box are one in the same. Depending on the brand/person   ::)

I 'think' I got this right...but agreed, the calls you mention are one in the same.  For a long box and these are in no particualr order and BTW it's REAL hard to limit it to just 5, but...

Mike Lapp
Gary Anderson

Scott, 

I believe you mean Chuck Anderson? Gary Anderson does make a fine turkey call but they are in the pot variety.

Great list of long box call makers.

I agree with these choices. I have a Marlin Watkins paddle box thats out of this world. He even used it last spring so I can say I have one that he used.
