RE: How many calls
I normally have two slate calls with a few different strikers and if it's windy I'll also carry a Quaker Boy Grand Ole Master box call. My favorite call and I've gotten good with is the MAD Super Crystal which I use about 95% of the time. I've practiced on alot of live hens and found that I can imitate their sounds pretty closely with this call. I also take a few mouth calls but rarely use them...
