Saw this post on Facebook today: Highly recommend the scratch box call hand made by Steve Sorensen. We have had great success with this call, had two gobblers going crazy the first day while using this call. Best $30 we've spent in a long time on a hunting product, worth way more than what he's selling it for. Unsolicited positive comments like that help me know I've got something really good here. Right now, I have seven finished and ready to go. More by the end of the week. Steve. Maker of The Nothern Scratchbox Turkey Call

Got mine today, Thanks Steve.

This one deserves a bump. I'm hoping to kill a bird with mine this year. I believe Steve is still making them.

FWIW, I've been told forever that I run them 'backwards'. LOL I've always held the box stationary and moved the striker. Always seemed to give me more control of volume and tone. Point is: run it however you can. There is no wrong way to make a right turkey sound. I'll try to get one of these when I get back and ring it out some.

Do you have any pics showing the difference in color between the two wood bodies?

Bumping from last year, for those who missed it and for those who are new. I've gotten behind schedule because my father broke his hip three weeks ago and my mother passed away two weeks ago. Lot of the responsibility has fallen on me for both, so I've been busy. I have several of my Northern Scratchbox turkey calls ready to go. I'll try to post pictures of both the Maple and the Cherry soon. (For now, the one pictured at right is cherry.) Here's the page on my new website——much better than what you saw last year: http://www.everydayhunter.com/turkey-callThanks for looking. Steve.

Bump
Ordered a couple to try. Maybe I'll finally get one in gun range!

Four shipped today, and just got another order in. Thanks to all who trust their turkey hunting to my scratchbox call.
Steve.

Thanks, Cousneddy. Your call went in the mail today (along with four others). Then another order came in by mail. Sweet.
Steve.

Just ordered one. "Gobbler's buy it so should you!" Can't argue with that!

PICTURES ADDED: On the left, an example of the Cherry body, on the right is an example of the Maple body. The body of the call is your choice—either Cherry or Maple. Both Cherry and Maple sound the same because the sound comes from the Cedar soundboard. At the right of this paragraph is an example of the Cedar Soundboard on all calls. Of course, wood grain will vary so these are only examples. Hope this helps. Thanks for looking. Steve

I got a cherry-cedar call today. Arrived in good shape, thank you Steve. It has a nice big striker, so it was easy to make different tones by moving location around. Sounds good!
