What kind of Chalk for Push pin calls?
« on: February 02, 2020, 07:14:15 AM »
Good morning. I wanted to get feedback from the team on what kind of chalk do you recommend for push pins?  I assume the same as box call chalk, but I wanted to get your thoughts as to the type and where you can get the best chalk. Thanks.

I use the Primos chalk, which is what Shannon recommends and sends with his push pins.

I don't use a push-pin call, but for my box calls I have used a half moon of red chalk.  The old timer who got me into turkey hunting back in 1988 told me to go to a hardware store or lumberyard and get red or blue chalk.  I picked one up for a dime back then!!!  I keep it in a latex surgical glove (ziplock bag will do, too) in my vest.  Stuff has no oils and last forever. 
I think I still have some of that original half moon around somewhere.
