If you're out there hunting turkeys and using this box call, we want video.

When we study sound in class I usually bring in my turkey calls to illustrate the idea of vibration and how the sounds are formed. It's pretty funny to see a kid use a call for the first time. It might be nice if I build a few of my own so I'm not worried about them breaking the ones I paid for! Thanks for what you do!

We kind of baby sat my brother-in-laws pet turkey while we found him a new home after my BIL house burned down. We have a 6 ft fence around our yard but everyone in the neighborhood could hear him. It was hilarious hearing all the turkey hunters for 3 blocks calling him. Most of the time he didnt respond. He got to be an old pet because he was smart. 😊

I'm not a turkey hunter, even though they are in my front yard from time to time. I have some poplar laying around that I wasn't sure what to do with, but I will definitely give this a try. Thanks for the videos. Keep up the good work, and God bless you!

nice box call .my only problem with box calls and slate or glass is the humidity in the mornings or just dampness would make them not sound good they sound great in your living room when its dry . the mouth call was my go to if you can master that its a winner .

I think it’s sounds pretty dam good for a homemade call those yelps are on point! I’m a woodworker and a taxidermist I build custom bases for animal mounts, make all my own plaques for European skulls, I’m definitely adding some box calls to my products here. Great build man 🤙🏼

Inspiring. Have you ever tried using a polyurethane finish? I have an old call I bought years ago that had a heavy finish and I feel like it adds to the sound of the call. I use it mid day when I want to strike something and its killed a many a lonely longbeards. Id be interested to see how different finishes compare

@pmitchell3571 9 ай бұрын

Any other ways to cut out the center of the bottom? I have all the tools but a drill press. Thinking theyre oughta be a way to use a router

Nice. I'm sure it feels good to get a Turkey with a homemade call. Heard turkeys called in with some pretty questionable calling and they didn't seem to mind, I'm sure the sound is fine.

@UnlimitedMercy 9 ай бұрын

@MichaelSingleton-mp5hh 9 ай бұрын

That turkey call will hunt! What would a person charge for a call like that?

@Pale-Horse-Outdoors 9 ай бұрын

Thanks! Honestly I have no clue. It would depend on the wood that you used. If you found some reclaimed wood to use you could probably get a good price for a custom made call.

@ljackson8220 9 ай бұрын

Good job. Does it still sound right if you glue the wood together for the bottom of the call? I don't have a thick piece.

You could remove the edges with a table saw and then hand sand it. Or just use a regular cordless sander.

@AZbone 9 ай бұрын

Great video! I love the idea of making your own call. How do you go about tuning it? I’m guessing it’s just sanding in inside of the pocket (making the walls thinner), sanding the lip of the box and or the top underside where it meets the box lip?I noticed one side didn’t sound as good. What I mean by that is the push stroke sounded different from the pull stroke. Is this pretty normal?

@Pale-Horse-Outdoors 9 ай бұрын

Yes. Each side will need to be tuned. And you're right, you tune by sanding the walls, rounding the edges and with the screw.
