Title: Matched Set for Son and I-Recommendations
Post by: Gobble Nole on April 29, 2021, 03:29:04 PM: I am looking to get a matched set of trumpets for my son and I in the near future and would like manufacturer recommendations. I have a couple of Buice horns and love them, I talked to him last night and he is about a year out...

That being said, if you were looking for a hunting call, good quality, nothing overly flashy, matched set, who would you recommend.

I am not in a huge hurry as our season just went out...

I think this is a neat option also!!! Plenty of good trumpet builders out there that can set you up as well and a few have already been mentioned. There is a guy on here that goes by LabsRusll that could set you up and you will like the price as well.

Post by: Brian Stewart on May 03, 2021, 11:12:44 AM: I have several of Billy's calls and he makes a great call for sure But the last time I talked to him he was gonna quit taking orders. I wouldn't overlook Brian Mero and Greg Gwaltney as well. Greg makes an awesome call for sure. I called in and killed a bird the very next day after receiving his call. It been around my neck several mornings since. Brian Mero makes a great sounding call as well. Both are easy to run and very pleasing to the eye. One of Brian's African Blackwood trumpets accounted for 2 birds this year. Best wishes on your search. They're several great trumpet makers out there I'm sure whoever you chose you and your son will enjoy them.

Lewis is a great choice!!! Mero is on here but I am not sure how often he goes by mero calls or something similar. You can try searching it.
