A quality paddle caller will most run itself.  It just needs someone to carry it around the woods. Yoder409

Nothing beats good poplar for making a box call and sounding turkey. The best thing about poplar the tone will mellow as it ages and tempers over time and sound better and better.

Agreed. I cut the body for the top call out about a year ago so that I'd have a personal call to work on this spring.  I kept a test lid on it and would run it every once in a while.  Amazing sound changes over that period.
