I am (surprise, surprise) virtually incapable of picking "just one" of ANY type of box call.

In a "gun-to-my-head" scenario........

Neil Cost cedar over butternut.

[Spring Creek Calls]

Frank Kruer bloodwood over black limba. Pretty hard to find these days.

[gaswamp]

Steve Mann...and he makes a lot of great wood combos

[King Cobra]

Bloodwood over Mahogany
SS Custom Calls
Lebanon, Virginia

Thank you
Would you know if he's still making calls?

Your very welcome...

Yes, Sir, Billy is still making calls.
He makes his calls after fall/winter hunting season.
He usually sends his calls out during late Jan-March.

Feel free to PM me, if your not willing to wait that long...

Only have one now, a Rodger Parks that I like a lot. but I have had a Watkins and a Mann and I don't know why I traded them, all 3 are great callers.

Thank you. I do have a Roger Parks one. I agree it's a good one.
Luckily he only lives about 10 minutes from my daughter's house. Great guy
The other ones you mentioned are great ones too.

Of the ones I have played and own I always go back to the ones from Don Watkins. I hope to get another from him made from apple wood and something else. Alaska Yellow Cedar over Service Berry is what I have from him in a long box now.

I have a Watkins black lima and yellow heart that goes with me just about on every hunt since I bought it. Mr. Watkins said the box sat for five years before he thought it was ready to hunt, and it hunts. Great kee kee and hen yelps with some of the finest jake and gobbler yelps too. I go for sound which is what I want in my long boxes, kee kee, hen and gobbler talk. I have a McKammey poplar and maple box that is one of those calls too and shares vest time with the Watkins.
