If I have to take sentimentality out, a Permar delrin classic. But if I'm going with my gut and heart, I'm taking an osage XT Anthony Ellis gave me many moons ago. Either way I hunt those two calls more than any others in my collection. Honestly that XT seems to get a little more response from the birds, just something about that delrin classic to my ear, but I've killed a lot of birds with both.

Lewis Stowe was a killer and then a callmaker. His last kill 4/27/22. Proven calls by a serious turkey hunter and serious Christian. They keep the proof in the pudding too!

Quote from: Spitten and drummen on April 15, 2024, 11:58:35 PMTo be honest , I have a whole lot of trumpets and it really doesn't matter which one I pull out. They are all good and unlike other turkey calls , a trumpet is unique in the sense that if you draw on them with your style of play then most work about the same. I can run a Prudhomme , a Kp , a Lapp , a permar and any other that I have in my collection and kill birds. To my ear and the way I play , they all sound pretty close the same. Just my opinion.
I agree with this. I traded a call for a battey trumpet (200+$) and then decided to try the Mosses Creek WingWood (25$ shipped) and when it came in and i ran the wingwood, I was blown away with how similar they sounded to my ear. So I took them outside and done a video sound file with each in the same video and if it wasn't for me physically showing each one before I played them, you'd swear I never changed calls.

I have had a similar experience.

I live and hunt by empirical evidence.
