I'm looking for a good owl call. I prefer custom made. Does anyone have a recommendation? Custom made or production? Thanks in advance for any help.
Its hard to beat our Hoot N Stick.. The poly, wood or custom version all sound very close..
Hook's Custom Calls Harrison Hoot N Stick. Period. God bless.
I like the synthetic Harrison HootNStick http://hookscalls.com/shop/locator-calls/new-synthetic-harrison-hoot-39-n-stick/prod_51.html
I've never tried the wood.
I have the Hootn stick as well. After just a few minutes of listening to some youtube videos of barred owl, I was sounding just like him. Not really, but pretty decent. Hope to try it out soon and the barred owl mating season is getting started.
I've got a James Harrison custom hooter. That thing is bad to the bone.

Try using your own mouth this sping, no joke either. I hoot everyday for practice. It's a real good change especially if you hunt public land.
I don't personally own one (YET!) but the Harrison is the best I've ever heard. I own both models of the Palmer tubes and can tell you the Harrison is several steps ahead as far as realism is concerned.
Hooks/Harrison Hooter....is unbeatable in the woods in my personal opinion :you_rock:
haha
what they all said
Is this a serious question? I thought there was only one to own a Hoot n Stick!! :z-winnersmiley: Best on the market hands down!! I like the one James made for me out of Maple and a matching crow call also have a hooter made from cocobolo lower tone both top notch!!!! From top notch people!
Just recently ordered one from Hooks. I had heard some very good reviews. I'm excited to see how it sounds.
Just ordered me one! Got the one made out of all wood.
I use my own mouth and get good response sometimes. I hoot about every day in season and out. One less thing to worry about. If you want a call the Hootin Stick is hard to beat.

Yep, James (Owlface) has it goin on'! I have 2 and LOVE them!
Wess
I also use my own voice. Took a while before I was confident enough to use it in the field but wouldn't have it any other way now.
You sound like a fool practicing it at first. Wouldn't recommend walking around the local mall practicing. Might get some funny looks. :lol:
Natural voice hard to beat
I owl well with my voice but I still carry a Harrison. Some mornings I just don't feel like using my own voice due to sore throat or stuffy head.
good goose call

The Hoot N Stick sounds better that about 8 out of 10 average turkey hunters using their voice. Probably 9 out of 10. I have the poly, one in curly maple, one in a wood I can't remember o
done and hopefully another on the way for my brother.
The bocote sounds awesome. Especially the one James had hidden in his shirt pocket at nationals :o
