The tube takes some practice to master but makes especially lifelike cutts, and it is favored by some hunters as a locator call. Wingbone calls are traditionally made from the bones of a hen-turkey wing. You call with a wingbone by sucking in sharply to produce a yelp. The wingbone is difficult to use and rarely seen in the woods, but its scarcity makes it an excellent call for heavily hunted gobblers. Boxes produce plenty of volume and work well on windy days when sound doesn't carry.
Many hunters use the box call's loud, lifelike tones for locating turkeys.
Push-button calls are the easiest of all calls to use. By simply pushing a rod you can make realistic purrs, clucks, and yelps. Push-button calls are well suited to soft calling when birds are close, and also to simulating gobbler fights by creating loud purrs. Like boxes, though, push-buttons don't work when wet. Slate calls are made of slate, glass, or aluminum.
