"Ferocious" Box call by Kip Feroce, and my go to slate is from "Luck Custom Calls"

Ferocious "Old Nailer".
Glad to hear Kip mentioned RIP.

Is Kip the guy that always set up at NTA tailgating most times? Made custom beautiful box calls.......believe he was from PA

Yes that was him. Oh man, I will miss visiting with him at the NTA. I just googled his name and never heard about his passing. Kind of a shock to me, not much older than myself and was always a highlight talking to him at conventions.

Yes those Swift ones looked sweet. I'd buy one.

I'm a trumpet guy. My current favorite is made by Ralph Permar in PA. His Delrin .45 model

101 lynch box and a mouth call

Here sevell, sevell, sevell…. Kaaa

Primos True Double 2

A lynch 101 "fool Proof", purchased in 1974, still my favorite. (In all honesty it is not fool proof, merely fool resistant.)

Rod Benson cherry/poplar box. All I've ever used.

Cody slate...

Pittman Black Diamond
Lynch one side box
Wood haven Ninja venom.

LOL

A picture of my wing bone turkey call made right here in Maine

Was he a Michigan guy?

I still have a Kelly Cooper box I remember getting as a kid probably 35 yrs ago. I use it on occasion.


Lately its been a Zink Power Hen Slate and a Quaker Boy push box.

I believe Kelly Cooper was from Pa.

your'e right.

If I remember right, I got my call from him at an outdoor show or something here in MI. He signed it for me.

I used to like the Perfection diaprahm call both for turkey and elk but have a hard time with those calls now tthat I have full dentures. I use a little wood scratch box now and that's a nice little call

Woodhaven red wasp or copperhead followed by a scratch box and I will carry a dorahl box . Scratching leaves has killed many gobblers for me
