What style(s) do you like and why?  Short, boat, mini boat, hen box.  What do the different styles give you, if wood is equal, which it can't totally be, but....  I do realize different woods in different calls is a factor, too.  Too many variables to mention them all, including call makers, and the goodness so many rabbit holes.
Love the Lord God with all your heart, mind and soul.  Love others as yourself.

Let us be silent, so we hear the whisper of God.

No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.

I'm a short box guy. Any wood combination that has a good high to low rollover will kill gobblerz.

I have been converted into a long box guy. The amount of different sounds in one call really appeals to me. I'm still learning and trying to get consistent with finding all of the different sounds in my Billy Bush and Steve Mann boxes.

Longbox with the right wood combination. I can get several different turkeys from one call. Kee Kee calling on a long box is easier for me than a short box. Plus I can get some gobbler/jake yelps.

I've never met too many box calls of any description that I did not like.

Just ask my wife....

The good Lord ain't made a gobbler I can't kill.  I just gotta be there at the right time.....  on the day he wants to die.

I like a good shortbox best, either a Cost style or fiddlebox

Longbox does everything a shortbox does and more.

You run a box call and you finesse hen boxes ...

Springs are somewhat different from - non spring boxes ..

Some are a lot easier to run than others .. It just depends on what you like .. Hunting style
