The problem I have with box calls is getting them to be quiet when they are in my vest. They tend to rub around and make odd sounds. With slate calls, you put the striker in one pocket and the slate in another pocket and that problem is solved. Dean is right, though, that a false strike with the slate call is more obvious to the turkeys. I have not used a diaphragm call, because a friend of ours almost choked to death on one. My Dad and brother swear by them though. I have a wingbone call from my first turkey, but it is too much a work of art to use heavily. You just have to find one that works for you, though.
