Cody calls
 

[:-]Am considering buying a cody friction call (slate). They have the cody2, woodsman and the all expensive cody world class. Is there considerable difference in the three besides price? Has anyone tried all three? I have only used 2 cheap friction calls in the past ($21 triple threat is the most expensive one, It sounds ok but i mostly bought it because it comes with two additional surfaces, plexi and alum.; the other one I have difficulty keeping it tuned. Cheapest Walmart slate that I bought 3 years ago) Any suggestions? Im kind of leaning towards the Woodsman slate. Its about midrange in price ($45) versus $125 for the World Class and $34 for the cody2. Does the world class sound that much better? Just so many calls out there. I just want something thats sounds good, is
consistant, and easy to tune.

ben, I' ve been checking out those calls as well. Trying to decide between the slate or glass call!!:)

RE: Cody calls
 

I have a World Class and a Cody II and they sound just alike,but keep in mind that i bought mine when thats all Cody was making.The reason i say that is
because i ' m not sure if he makes the Cody II the same as he did 6 or 8 years ago.

I own a Cody II slate and a Cody Envy Glass call and they both sound great bought the envy at wal-mart and the Cody II direct from Cody. Can' t go wrong with any of them. I would recommend buying one of their Bocote strikers, they really make the call sound super.

I just went to the HArrisbirg Sport Show yesterday and asked the guys at Cody the same question. The World Class Slate was bumped up to $125 because it was just voted the #1 call in some contest of 200 different calls and it is in such demand they could not keep up because they make one at a time. The Woodsman slate is made very similar and was voted # 2 in the same contest and that is only $50. I bought the CodyII slate a few years ago at the show and we played both the CodyII and Woodsman and there was not much of a difference. The codyII was a little raspier but over all I think the Woodsman sounded a liitle better. Will it make a difference in the woods? I don' t think so but that is a self preference judgement call on which one. My dad ended up getting the Woodsman slate yesterday at the show because I already had the Cody II slate. Both are great calls. I also have there World Class glass and there envy glass.
I met BOSSTOM at the show at the QuakerBoy booth. What a great guy. We talked for a good while and I ended up buying one of his strikers made out of his secret woods;). Boy does that sound great on my Cody II!

I have the Cody II glass and slate calls. They sound great to me. I bought mine at PBS. My hunting buddy bought his Cody glass at Walmart. I assume it is the Envy? He lost his Cody II glass. He is not happy with the call he bought at Walmart. It just doesn' t sound as good as thr Cody II. I would go with the Cody II in glass and slate.

D:eek:Thanks for the input. I went ahead and ordered the Cody Woodsman Slate.
I figured ya' ll saved me about $80 since i was very close to trying to order the
$125 World Class.
Im also going to order the Cody2 glass call.

I wish I had enough money to order one of ALL OF THEM.
