I have an old Lynch World Champion that must be about 40 years old. It's a good sounding box call. I have a couple custom boxes and probably 8 or 9 custom pot/peg calls. I really like working the calls, be it a box or pot call and they flat out call turkeys. When the bird starts getting close most often I'll switch to a diaphragm. I have seen that backfire, the bird is tuned into that sound from the friction call and the mouth call turns them off. Gotta love/hate the finicky nature of 3-4 year old gobblers.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
