Title: Which production box call?
Post by: Yooper on February 16, 2013, 01:24:19 PM
I've been using a Lynch Foolproof for years and I like it but there are a lot of new models now on the market. In your opinion, what production box call sounds the best?

Not new ( mid 1990's), but really like my Quakerboy Grand Old Master.  Have several custom boxes, but always have the Grand Old Master in my vest.

My box call is an old Quaker boy grand master that a good friend of mine from NC gave to me. He whittled down the sides and tuned it for me and that's the sweetest sounding box I've got.

Lynch World Champion or Quaker Boy mini boat paddle.QB is higher raspier,Lynch is more southern if that makes sense.

I like the Cody 6.5 one sider...really well made and rolls over into a great rasp.

For lower dollars the new Thug Box Blade from Quaker Boy sounds really good...Cabelas in Kansas City was sold out of them this week...noticed my local wally world had them. Its a single sided box.

You owe it to yourself to try a Woodhaven Real Hen box call.  You will be impressed

My favorite is my mid-1970's vintage Lynch World Champion. It just sounds better the older it gets. ;D

I agree. I have both the walnut and cherry. The cherry is always in my vest and has been the demise of many birds.

I like primos heart breaker myself, but a lynch call is hard to beat. 20ft away and they sound like a perfect hen in my opinion.

My personal preference is a Rohm Brothers box for the production call price range.

Popular box with a walnut lid.  Turkey love this call.  I would love your guys to hear it. Maybe I will make a Youtube video, but I sure will not appreciate the call unless we where in the woods.


Oh, but I love my Woodhaven, Real Hen, Loud, Raspy.  Just a Great call that you can't go wrong.

My favorite production box is far and away a Lynch World Champion. I have a real old one that was probably bought in the 60's or 70's and then last year I bought an Anniversary edition. Both sound great and are easy to run.

It's a little on the higher end of prices for a production call, but I like the Woodhaven Cherry Real Hen for a production box.  Almost chose it this past weekend when I went looking for a box, but couldn't pass up a spending a little more for a handmade Purple Heart/Red Cedar David Halloran Checkered Short Box.  Also have to give some praise to the Cane Creek Pro Custom Box.  Cheaper in price than the Woodhaven, but a great sound none the less and Doug is a great caller and call maker.

MADD River Otter. Sounds great, doesn't need chalk, and works in the rain.

Just saw a Quaker Boy Grand Old Master (new) looks like 10 years old maybe, sitting in a little local gunstore near me...marked down to $ 20.00.  Was in a hurry today and store was busy but I'm going back to get that one.

Primos box cutter is a good one. Called in my last longbeard with that one.

A buddy I hunt with always has a Primos Heartbreaker and a Putt Rohm box with him.
Both sound awesome.

Wood haven real hen. Cherry or walnut. IMO best production calls made.
