[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2788946, member: 91783"] I have made my own calls for several years and am familiar with how different woods change the sound and tone of a call. most of the plastic calls have a sharp crisp sound while wood gives it a mellow tone depending on the density of the wood. So far, the best wood that I have found was French walnut left over from rifle stocks that a friend gave me who was a custom rifle builder. American walnut does good as well for giving a good mellow howl. I haven't tried many of the exotic woods, cocobolo being one that I did as well as purple heart but when you get to working with a lot of those types of wood, they have toxic properties. I have wanted to try some persimmon root as it is pretty dense and very hard, they use it for golf club heads on drivers. His calls are sure pretty. [/QUOTE]
