Box call about 75% of the time for me. I like my pot too.

Never could do the mouth calls very good and now with dentures I don't even try.

I generally go to a pot call first but as it goes, that's what I use, meaning that if a bird or two respond to a box, that's what I'll lean toward.
I just figure I'll try calls with drastically different tones and somebody will like one of them...Seems to work out for me... :fud: :OGani:

I like starting with my pot as well. However....whatever it takes to get em going,that's what I'll be using.

My go to is a slate or glass pot with a laminated striker.  I'll normally finish with a Hooks EX or EX 2.  I carry and use a Spring Creek short box as my locator call and use it plenty on windy days.  So for me, I use whatever the turkeys respond to.

Lately I have been playing with box calls and scratch box calls more....  But, if I could only have one call in the arsenal it would be a mouth call...  No matter what call I am playing with, there is always a good diaphragm call in my mouth while I am hunting.

I enjoy playing with the box calls, and lately especially the scratch box calls...  I love the low end clucks and purrs that a scratcher makes, and it is simply fun to play on them...  but when a bird is close, and the gun is up, nothing beats a mouth call.
Did I do that?
