BAR II .270 OP 4 point B Joined: May 2018 Posts: 314 Northport, AL	Need your help please...I have a buddy that lost his box call last spring when he took me on a hunt and I wanted to replace it. Even though I do not use a box call often, I would prefer to play with a call before purchasing. Unfortunately, it looks like ordering on-line may be the best option at this point. I would like to hear your opinions on the best box call “out-of-the-package” and hopefully under $100...I don’t really like him that much! Thanks!

Just go somewhere that will let you try them because I had to go through several to find the ones I have. But I'm pretty picky. Don't care much for the Walnut ones You haven't been blocked until you've been flock blocked!!!

The box's he made this year are the best I have ever seen or heard and Mark's has them in their display case right up front.
