Looking for a good owl call that won't break the bank.

I purchased an owl call the other day at Sportsman's Warehouse and it doesn't sound like an owl at all. Can somebody please recommend a good owl call?

I got one last year from a guy on the forum I think it was Mac Dietrich.  Awesome call. Great sound and fully custom made.

Harrison Hoot'n Stick - synthetic ... www.hookscalls.com

+1...I got one in Osage a few years back from Hooks, it's the best owl hooter I've ever ran...

But I have promises to keep,  
And miles to go before I sleep,  
And miles to go before I sleep."

Another vote for the Harrison. It is truly easy to sound like an owl with the Hoot'n stick.

I know it's nice to make a great sounding hoot and there are a pile of good inexpensive hooters out there. If you are looking to hoot for locating purposes only, try to get decent at one good final note of the whole "who cooks for you, who cooks for you all" sequence with your voice.
  I have a bunch of trophies that say I used to be able to sound like a barred owl but in the woods it matters little to none. When hunting, I rarely ever crank out the whole sequence. Just one good sharp hoot gets the same response. Plus, they don't gobble in the middle of all that noise and leave me wondering where he was.
  Even if you use your Harrison, try sticking to one note and see how it does for ya.
