The multible surface friction calls can be a good choice , I would stick with the three way ones as I find the surfaces seem to get to small and the sound seems to disapear. QuakerBoy has a the New "Triple Threat (Sindwinder)" out this spring and it seems to be a good call. This call you can get volume out of it easly and it has a Glass ,Slate and Aluminum surfaces for different sound. When you have a call in this type the striker is a important pc of equipment aswell. Different striker types will give you a different sound on the same surface area so owning a few different ones is a good choice also. Keep in mind the carbon striker works well wet and for volume too. A soft wood striker on Aluminum will make one of the best plain yelps there is.I hope this will help you in your choice...BT

I was going to order the MAD 4x4 for versatility reasons...glad I held off. I'm looking at the HS Strut AlumiWitch now which comes with 2 strikers. This should be enough to get me started. Thanks for steering me in the right direction.

Goldie76, You don't have to keep the rubber bands on the call all I use them for is to gobble with that box call. When the time is right to gobble. When it rains you can put in a bread wraper to keep it dry and stills plays. I use a diaphame call or a mouth yelper when it raining.

Thanks for all the help guys. I ordered some calls and some instructional videos to get me started. I'll let you know how things go.

Can't wait to hear how it goes. Remember that no matter what call you use, practicing with it is the key.
