I'm paying attention to all the names being mentioned.
The better calls I have are a couple of Albert Paul boxes and a Billy White Hustling Hen
I definitely agree with Hal that this box call has some great sounds in it.
I have a Camp box as well
I'm still kicking myself for not buying one of his calls that I had in my hand when NWTF was in Atlanta a few years ago.
He had one call that had the best sound from both sides that I've ever had in my hands, but at the time I didn't want to spend the money
I tried some Albert Paul calls at the nationals, he had one on the table that I wanted to buy but all the calls he had were demos and he was just taking orders. I wanted that specific call but I ended up walking away empty handed.

I have 6 or 7 of Albert Pauls Calls. All of them were ordered after playing a call at Nationals or calling Albert and ordering them. All of the Calls I have received from Albert have met or exceeded what he had on his Table at Nationals.
Tim, I do not doubt that and hopefully I did not indicate otherwise. My point is that I loved the sound of the call in my hand and therefore, it was the call I wanted. Having made a few box calls, I know how difficult and almost impossible it is to duplicate the sound from one call to the next. No 2 calls are going to sound exactly alike.
Albert Paul is one of the most reputable call makers out there and makes a fantastic call. But, I'm very particular about box calls and if I put my hands on one that has that "near perfect" sound (IMO), that's the particular call I want.
I have a friend that recently bought a call from a well known call maker. He bought it based on trying one a friend of his had that he bought at the Nationals. The call place very high in the call making competition. He ordered the exact type of call and specified that he wanted that call to sound the same as the one his friend bought. He was somewhat disappointed in the call he received.
The point in saying this is that call makers cherry pick calls to put into competitions. If they are serious about the competition, they will pick the very best out of the vast amounts they have made. So, that call that highly placed in the competition may have been one out of 20 or 50, or 100. This goes back to the "try before buy".
