What % of your calls are custom made calls.

Just curious what percent of your calls are custom made calls and is there a mass produced call that you can't leave at home ?

Like most guy's on here, most of my calls are custom, I'd say 95% of the them. I've given most of the mass produced calls I had away to new hunters. Seems like I have better success with a custom call.

But I have a old (mid 90's) Quaker Boy Grand Old Master box call that will always have a place in my vest. When all else fails, I've had good luck pulling it out.

CASH

A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

The only calls that i have that aren't custom made are my mouth calls.

95%. I have one Primos box cutter, and all my mouth calls are Hooks. Everything else is custom.

I would say 90%.  And probably 100% from today on.

Gold Spur

99%, I sometimes use a HS Strutt, Two Timer mouth call. The rest of my collection is custom made.

Almost everything.  Gooserbat diaphragms, slate and glass.

I have a Cody Envy glass that I love, too.

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.

:agreed:

And I only carry one mouth call anymore, a Primos stacked frame.  Even the locator calls are custom.

I'm fairly new to this, so help me out.  What would be considered custom?  I started out about five years ago and thought my Woodhaven slate would be considered custom.  I have since added a Roberts Brothers and a couple of calls I had to order from the maker.
