I've got a purple heart over red cedar short box from Mike over at spring creek that I really like. I've got a black Walnut with maple sides on order with him, I'm sure it will be full of turkey.

Spring Creek Calls

I've shot a bunch of birds using walnut and maple, but I'm quickly becoming a fan of purpleheart or walnut over eastern red cedar.

I don't think I've had my hands on enough boxes to have a very valuable opinion but for what it's worth of the 8 or 9 boxes I've owned. I have a SS paduak/mineral poplar that's a sweet talker and persimmon/black limba from frank kruer that's all feathers.

Frank and Al Shoemaker make great boxes in what I consider the hunter class price range (under $100).
