Looking for suggestions on box calls what's the best out there
How much money are you willing to spend and how much time are you willing to wait for it?

Regardless of how much or wait time the best on the market is either a Scott Bashore or a mike lapp Jeff mccamey and tim bullock ain't far back.

Larry from Prairie Game calls makes a super call, this guy know what he's doing.
Don't know if there is a best box out there, so many great ones but Jerry Zebro, Marlin Watkins and Jeff McKamey make fine short boxes. Scott Hembrook (WillowRidgeCalls) makes a Gibson box that is very reasonable that is awesome. Scoot
Don't know if there is a best one out there but here are three makers I think make a great one:
Mike Lapp
Tim Clayton
Darrin Dawkins
Marlin Watkins, Albert Paul.

I agree I would also add Marlin Watkins and Albert Paul and Dad's.

I looked at each site listed here. There are some very beautifully made calls here. I really like the Zebro and the Baublit. May have to get me one... Or two...
I really like the sites that have sound files so you can hear the different sounds of the different wood.
I just recieved two box calls from Jerry Zebro, that are awesome sounding and beautifuly made. His calls are reasonably priced for the quality of his calls. Give him a call @ 715-505-3324.
Ed Terefencko is another name that has been left out he also make great short and long box calls
