RE: Quaker Boy or Primos
well I have ended my choice after long thought & from some of your posts. SinceI collect turkey calls I have just about everything from both companies. last year I used primos & was very happy. I think this year I will split it like this. I will alternate each day between them!
here is day one
QB (the first generation)boat paddle
QB grand old master (I mean old!)
QB original D.D. Adams Slate
QB mouth calls
QB walnut glass call
QB original turkey talkin tube
QB crow call
QB owl
QB peecock / woodpecker call
wingbone (real turkey bone)
day 2
primos heartbreaker
primos power slate
primos glass call
primos crow
primos hooter
primos truple threat
primos wingbone
primos real wing
primos mouth calls
primos power slot with frictionite
primos tube call
as to why I don't mix them up --- heck I don't know. I'm kind of anal or something. when I do mix & match my choices become real simple.....here is that list!
butski mouth calls
primos heartbreaker
QB boat paddle
primos real wing
wing bone caller (a real one)
butski walnut glass call
real mccoy owl hooter
kinght & hale crow call
QB tube call
QB D.D. Adams slate
hadel woodpecker
hadel hawk
I think more than anything I am just going crazy getting ready for turkey season. In the end who know I may go crazy & try some old knight & hale calls again!

RE: Quaker Boy or Primos
I've really liked anything I've tried with the Quaker Boy name on it. Even the Little One-Sider box call, one of the least expensive box calls on the market. The gobblers really responded to that call, 'till I sat on it and broke it! I ended up using it as much or more than my Lynch. I ought to get another one, just to see if it's as good as the first.
QB mouth calls seem to hold their sound longer for me than other brands I've used. Old Boss Hen is my favorite.
Nothing against Primos or any other call maker. Just a personal preference.

RE: Quaker Boy or Primos
QB mainly because they carry them at the local hardware store. I have a few from other makers though.
My favorite call is my paddle box call. Can't recall who makes it though. Next I like the QB Pro Triple mouth call. Could never get my QB Old Boss Hen to sound good.
The next call I want to get though is that Lohman pump action yelper.

RE: Quaker Boy or Primos
Thanks for the tip, moonge. From what I understand, the boat paddle can really reach out there. That's a good thing when you're trying to locate toms in thick-forested mountains (aka Big South Fork).
So many calls to buy, so little $$$ in my wallet...
