there are so many it is hard to say.
the push pull is the easiest to use.the box is about the next.I make scratch boxes and they are easy to use.

then you have the diaphrams,once you learn to usse them they are great when the bird gets close.

you will just have to get one and try it.some of the shops have a few you can try to see which one you like.
good luck on your chose.<img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.

I'm going to slightly disagree. If I had only one to take, other than a mouth call it'd be a good slate or quality glass call. I particularly like the MOJO by River Valley Game Calls. I can go as soft as tree yelps to very loud long distant calling. Also, it's an all weather call. I've been able to show even the youngest children how to make realistice sounds within minutes. Even some adults don't grasp a box call as well as I've seen them with a slate or glass. That's just my observation at the booths.

I too am a believer that slate (or glass) calls are easier to learn and use than a box. However, I do have and use a box as a locator because I think it carries better.

well,I'm goin to have to agree with brokenbucket. as far as an easy call to learn on, your box call is much easier to learn on<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
it's hard to make a mistake on a good box call<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I didn't ask, but thanks for the advice! I think I have the slate pretty well figured out. Working on the box this year, and while I am in Korea I wil work on the diaphram! As a novice, I can say that the slate/friction was the easiest to learn and come close with. The box in my humble opinion, requires just a little more practice to get the rhythm and the strike right! Again MHO. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
