Post by: KYHeadhunter02 on February 14, 2018, 11:45:08 PM
There's quite a few out there. What's your favorite? Do you carry it all the time?

I like the tree talker from Lonnie sneed, the pocket player from Madhatter calls, and I have one other that may not be as well known or easy to find... THe cane cutter from cane cutter game calls. That thing makes some of the best soft talk I have been able to get out any call.  and yes I carry one of these 3 at all times, love them for finishing work.

Schaffer all cedar tear drop tree talker or his newer laminate tear drop. Both are excellent.

I have a Lonzo's Zebrawood Slate paired with an old, old Knight & Hale 2 piece hickory/acrylic striker and I can make the softest tree calls, purrs, and clucks that I've ever heard. Wouldn't hunt without it.

Parks Tree Talker. I have killed several gobblers first thing in the morning running nothing but that call. I can remember three different states the call worked in.

I picked up a Jimmy Schaffer laminated teardrop from him in Nashville yesterday.  What a great sounding little soft talker!  I look forward to using it.  I don't know how many of you have met Jimmy, but what a class act.

I also have 1 of those Cane Cutter Calls. They do make some sweet sounds and are a very interesting call.

I typically use a trumpet for all my soft tree talk.
The same trumpet I hunt with just toned way down.

Ford Mangum makes a great trough call.  I have 2.

You can cover the bottom of any pot call to tone it down I guess. I need to record it and see how it actually sounds.

Im wondering if it's worth packing a small talker.

One of my own. DD Adams style stop sign call with a snakewood and ivory striker and protective ebony end cap. This thing is awesome with the soft stuff with great clucks purrs and real sweet tree yelps. Never leave home without it. https://imgur.com/a/uVaEj https://imgur.com/JI8L2gq
