Personally, my go-to calls are a Brad Gainey cottontail distress made from buffalo horn and yellow box elder burl (yellow & black front) and a Doug McCarty open reed distress made from acrylic with a delrin tone board (blue at rear right). Beside those on my “go-to” lanyard, I have a Will Horting double reed distress call made from pronghorn horn (front left), a Jered Brisby coaxer made from buffalo horn (center), and a John Ryan howler, also made from buffalo horn (top). You might notice by that list, I prefer the sharp, crisp sounds made by horn and acrylic over the duller tones of antler and lower density woods.
