What is a good solid, readily available production call?

[Danger DAve]

I have a small, but pretty decent collection of custom calls, most of which I read about on this board.  I went hunting today with no success and felt the urge to head down to Academy and the Sportsman's Warehouse to buy a new call to play with.  Instant gratification that way.

If all of your most prized and cherished calls went the same place that missing socks go, and you had to run out and buy something or not call, what would you go with?

I ask this out of curiosity and also because I wonder if the production stuff is improving through technology or demand.  Thanks for playing.

edited to change custom to production.  derp.

[Spring Creek Calls]

What kind of production call you looking for? They come in many shapes and sizes.

[Danger DAve]

Me?  I would probably grab the one with the most eye catching packaging.  I was more interested in what someone with knowledge of them would get.  I like box calls best probably.  But I couldn't really tell you why.  They just speak to me I guess.

Cody box calls sound good, Primos box cutter, Lynch full proof... I'm guessing these are the types of calls that would be considered production calls.. regardless, they all kill birds.

Thanks Captain, that's the kind of stuff I'm looking for.  I used to have a Box Cutter, and liked it, but I gave it to a friend who liked it more than me.

Well you are a pretty good friend to just give away a box cutter just because your buddy liked it more! Can't go wrong with any of those boxes.

I try to be.  He would do the same for me.

HS Strut lil' duece calls are full of turkey and may be the least expensive on the market. A decent wood striker brings them to life. The primos power crystal is a killer. That box cutter is pretty good.

Primos Heartbreaker or Lil Heartbreaker are two nice production box calls.  Woodhaven Real Hen is a nice box too.

I still carry my old Primos Power Crystal in my vest.

Woodhaven Real Hen cherry. if I can not get one to gobble with other calls this one will get one out of them.

I like the H.S.Strut ring zone friction calls.
