Abstract:
A box-type turkey call comprising:an open-top box assembly having a bottom wall supporting upwardly-extending pairs of laterally-spaced side walls and longitudinally-spaced end walls to define a relatively open top, at least one side wall providing an upper rubbing edge for sound production of mimic turkey calls;an actuator lid presenting a pair of spaced broad faces which extend in a lateral direction between spaced side edges and in a longitudinal direction between a proximal end and a spaced distal end, which distal end is adapted for manipulation by a user;pivoting/alternating means, interconnecting a given end wall of the box assembly with the proximal end of the actuator lid, .cndot. for allowing relative pivoting between the actuator lid and box assembly so that a given one of the broad faces in a face-down orientation may be rubbed against the at least one side wall upper rubbing edge, as well as .cndot. for allowing relative alternating of the actuator lid for alternating back and forth between which of the pair of broad faces gets the face-down orientation relative to the box assembly's open top for rubbing against the at least one side wall upper rubbing edge.
