I think I would like to try one again. I tried one a few years ago and sold it but think I want to try another. What call would you recommend? Thanks.
 
Moye Howard. Dead Bird Walking on FB or Moyehow on OG.
He makes affordable trumpets that are pure turkey. Used mine to call up both my TN birds this week.

Shoebuck on oldgobbler.com makes a great trumpet, as well as Lee Chadwick at misfire game calls. His acrylic is awesome. Some of the call makers mentioned here have a 1 year+ wait time.
 
Have you tried making a wing bone call before. I've got one I made about 7-8 years ago and it's been a pretty solid call with responses from gobbling.
Did you make yours from a hen or gobbler? For some reason I thought the best ones were made from hens.
 
Question for the trumpeteers, are the mouth pieces round or more flat usually? I've only tried one, and could not get it right. I practiced a lot, but couldn't get consistent sound.
 
I have a L Frank Cox trumpet. There's none better! They aren't cheap. The mouthpiece is mammoth ivory. They are like an investment that increase in value. PM me if you want his number. There used to be a 6-12 month wait but I don't know anymore.
