Well there’s a man David Leonard that makes a mighty fine grunt call. He’s still a member here but don’t think he posts much on here. He’s in phenix city I believe. I have one myself and it’s the best sounding call I’ve ever had

He’s a dang good guy too, he sent me one for free few weeks ago just for asking about his bow season this year…

I’ve got Old Crow and David Leonard custom calls and they both sound and look terrific. Both solid dudes as well.

I've been friends with David Leonard for about 10 years now. When I first met him,he would always show me cool stuff he made in his wood working shop as a hobby. After 2 years of me begging him to make me a grunt call,he finally did and the rest is history; he ain't looked back since. I've prob purchased 6 or 7 over the years for other people and have a few for myself. It's the best sounding call I've ever used. His are also tunable as well. If you slide the band all the way down the reed,it even makes a great doe bleet. Here's a vid of a 115/120" 8 coming to me on a string 2 days ago 3 minutes after I did a tending grunt sequence. He came to 5 yards and circled my tree 3x. I do not use bait either,so really no other reason he came to me other than looking for another buck.

You can text him or call him. Either one. If you can't get ahold of him,send me a pm; I keep in contact with him pretty regular and can pass along the message or give him your number

I bought two from David Leonard recently and they sound superb. Plus they are absolutely beautiful

Just curious what do David’s calls typically run $ ? I’ve never looked into the custom side before.
