Go to call

A pot call that I made....walnut pot, slate over glass, hickory and purpleheart strikers. This year I am also going to try a beautiful wingbone call that my buddy 'Fairchaser' gave to me a couple of years ago....working to learn to make turkey sounds on it now...

Nothing fancy, just my old Primos power crystal.
As I have gotten more experienced over the years I use mouth calls more and more, but I have been carrying this call for 25 years and I still use it many times a season. It has been responsible for more dead birds than I can count. I bet it didn't cost me $20 bucks. If I ever lose or break this call, I will go into a deep state of depression.

They are still available.
 
Dave Owens Blue Ghost mouth call. I use the Grey Ghost also, but mainly the Blue.
The more I use my wing bone the more I use my wing bone.
I use a Primos Purple Haze glass call when trying to locate as well.
I have other calls that I carry and mess around with just for the enjoyment of it, but the above listed calls are what I kill turkeys with.
 
Believe it or not, when I need to yank a gobble out of a bird just to make me feel better or have been whooped by one for a couple days, I pull out a Lynch World Champion box call. It's the first turkey call ever owned and is probably 35 years old. Don't know if it is the tone/sound of the call or my confidence in it…or something else but it works and I never leave for the turkey woods without it.
 
I'm not brand specific, but mouth calls are my go to. Probably use them 60% of the time. The other 40% is split between an old Knight and Hale box, a couple of slates, and a couple of wingbone yelpers.
 
Primos Aluma-Slate and an H.S. Strut split V 3 reed. Been a killer combo for me for a lot of years. Dad had an aluma-slate that I learned how to hunt with so I bought one for myself when I was 17 or 18.
 
Woodhaven Toxic Orange and a slate call that my uncle made for me when he started experimenting with them. Never been turkey hunting in his life. Just loves to make stuff by hand. Lord at the birds that call has brought to their demise. It's priceless to me.
