RE: Favorite friction call
About 6 years ago, my hunting partner's brother let me borrow his call. It was by M.A.D. Calls and it's called the Super Crystal. Went out that day and killed a gobbler. Then went back to MN and bought one of my own and a week later killed another one. Since then, I've been very successful with it and the call I use 90% of the time. I rough it up with sandpaper and rough the striker up as well. I've sat and traded calls with some hens and have gotten to where you couldn't tell the difference between us. It works for me...
