Get a box. Quick learning curve and very versatile. Crow and owls are used for shock calls, the box can do the same thing.

I agree ...just learning .. get a box call or slate call ...the easiest of the 2 to learn quick ..watch a few hunting this weekend and listen to the sounds your trying to make ... I am sure there are a few on this weekend !

Yeah, get a box call. But get a video also to learn the cadence and volumes and when to do what calls. learning to make the sounds is pretty easy but knowing when and how to use them is the key. Good luck! you'll be hooked.  :tup:
