I love the "Woodsman" by "Cody Calls." It's 50 dollars... but money well spent.

I generally use a Knight and Hale mouth call or Quaker Boy. As for the slate its a Cody or Quaker boy...

Up until I gave it to a friend recently I was very fond of my Quaker Boy GPS slate call, it was very directional and easy to use. My current fave is one I assembled from parts I got over the net.

Another plug for Knight & Hale mouth calls, love them!!
As for"pot" calls, I presently use some custom calls, slate, glass, and the Sla-Tec by K&H.

I have an off-topic question,

Never hunted/called turkeys and just recently purchased a Hale and Knight slate turkey call to practice on. The question here is that the slate came with sandpaper, what do you use this on (slate or striker)? The striker hasa smooth coated tip and don't know if you are to ruff up this tip or the slate portion. Kinda feel dumb asking this but don't want to ruin it.

RE: Favorite Mouth and Slate Call??
 
Wojo you use it on the slate surface. It helps ruff it up so the striker has something basically to strike lol[8D]
Good Question! Okay so quaker mouth calls and maybe the GPS. What quaker boy mouth calls though? I know there are quiet a few.
Thanks yall:D

Blodgett Game calls (slate or glass) is my all-time favorite....but they stopped making them a couple years ago. If you can find one - grab it. In anyone has one their interested in selling, please let me know.

I just have some H.S. Strut dual calls set with a DVD that I got at Wal-Mart, it must suck, since I haven't seen it listed here, at least I learned how to use a mouth call with the calls I have, haven't used them hunting, though.

The Knight & Hale sounds good to me for mouth calls, which Knight & Hale was lots of people raving about?

And Quaker Boy GPS is a slate call, sounds like I'll have to try those out sometime.

The PATE SLATE. Can't beat it.
Adjustable tone. Can sound like a few together.
Always worked for me.

younggun308 08-24-2007 03:58 AM

RE: Favorite Mouth and Slate Call??
 
Is that a custom call? Or are you talking about Knight & Hale?

ericstacy 08-24-2007 10:24 AM

RE: Favorite Mouth and Slate Call??
 
No it is actually a call designed by Jimmy Pate of Louisiana. I was trying to find more info on it but I will have to do some more research. It is a small adjustable box with a slate that can make numerous piches to sound like more than one bird. Here is a picture from the package. If I can find a number or web I will post it later.

My favorite mouth call is Quaker Boy's Old Boss Hen. My favorite production pot type call is Primos Power Crystal. A good easy to use pot type call for a beginner is Knight & Hale's Ol' Yeller. I'm sure there are more expensive calls out there that sound sweet, but the turkeys seem to like this stuff just fine :)

Give ICALLMUCH a call,he is on the forum. He will make you a great sounding slate,and a real nice guy to deal with to boot. As for mouth calls I use K and Hale or HS Strut
