I had never liked mouth calls before, but I tried the starter pack from Hooks. I can't say enough good about them. Called in and shot my first fall season turkey this morning with a series of kee kees and yelps.  I will be using Hooks fmouth calls from now on.

I use a primos true double and a Preston Pittman black Diamond mostly. Fooled alot of birds with those two.

Before I started making my own I used Houndstooth, mainly the Tom Bomb and V Cut. They make very consistent calls.

I make my own, but if I didn't I would be buying from Sam at Gooserbat for sure.  He contributes a lot to the folks on this site. 

Now, for those new to mouth calls:   Finding the right call is more about what works for the individual more than who makes the call.  No matter who makes them, some will be good for a specific individual,...and some will not.  You just have to sort through them to find out.

I know a guy

And that guy makes some darn good calls

I have used woodhaven for years, but bought a grab bag off gooserbat last year and I will be buying more. One of the few that I have found to be good right out of the package without an hr of tuning
I bought a grab bag myself and all were great calls. Love the bat wing and use it the most.

First thanks for the words of encouragement.  Second your 2nd paragraph is spot on.  I have a very good customer in Florida who only does good with a bat wing, a guy here in oklahoma who does good with a gulvis style or a boss hen cut and myself I like a ghost cut.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Was also able to snag 1 of Sam's "Grab bag" specials, this will be 2nd year using them and when they need replacing, back to Sam, was a great promotion for Gooserbat mouth calls. Very easy to run, dont even know what most of the cuts are, I will just have Sam send me what he recommends.

I like about anything with a ghost cut. Woodhaven ninja, both of Dave Owens, and American strutter are my personal favorites
