Home Forums Birds & Dogs Turkey Hunting Long box use

I picked up a couple of long box calls. I never have used one.

For spring hunting are they a good addition to carry with my short box calls?

A GREAT addition to your short box(es) !!!

I hunt very light. So, a lotta days, a long box is the only box I carry. They're a little more trouble to carry (unless you have a great holster like the one you have !!) but you can pull more different turkey voices out of a good long box than you can out of a good short box.

I will GUARANTEE you, that Ernie Fetters call is ALL turkey !!!!

Is the other one a Lonnie Mabry ??

Yep, long boxes are easy to tote around in those holsters.

Rare I carry a short box anymore (unless its a Watkins misfit) as the long box can do so much more from super quiet to commanding attention long distance.

I wondered if you would recognize that holster. I works great. It came with the Ernie Fetters call. That call amazes me every time I pick it up.

The other call is a Lonnie Mabry call. It is also sounds outstanding. My wife and I stopped and saw him on a trip down south. She enjoyed visiting with his wife while I enjoyed listening to his turkey hunting in the mountains experiences. As a bonus I got to bring a few calls back to Iowa.

Yeah............. I think I saw that holster once before.

I was hoping to get to swing by and visit with Lonnie back in January. But it didn't quite work out that way. Maybe next year.........

GREAT callers you have there !!!!!!!

Yeah, whoever made that holster makes damned fine holsters!
