This is pre-varnished so no chalk required and although a bit high pitched =for my ear it sure worked on the first gobbler. Gobbled back every time, crossed road and came to call.

It sounds good but the wood is of poor quality and there is no finish on the wood. As a result It gets damp very easily and stops working (even w Chuck)

I’ve owned two of these calls, having given my first one to a hunting buddy after we called in his first tom with it. I had just doubled up on mature toms the day before and my tags were cut. I purchased another one for myself for the following spring and called in a pile of birds with it, tagging out again. Same thing the following spring. The call is easy to work and sounds great with excellent volume. I hunt a hilly area and typically cover a lot of ground “prospecting” for birds. I’ve had birds answer from nearly a mile away and after closing the distance, had them come running into the call at times. I’ve also had some slow responses but almost always they came in, usually gobbling, strutting, and spitting, and putting on a show. I saw a bad review in here for quality. It just sounds to me like one got through the QA inspection. Both of my calls were well made and flawless. Granted they are not hundred dollar hardwood hand crafted works of art, but they damn sure get the job done. With practice you can yelp, putt, and purr like a pro.

I literally have dozens of box calls. Some very expensive, some inexpensive. Some cheap ones sound better than the expensive ones. Almost all of them are at least acceptable. But this Quaker Boy...I understand that this is not an expensive call and QB does what they need to do to hit a price point. But this call is not as good as it could be, even at its price point. The entirety of the inside of the box is left with a very rough finish with lots of chips and fuzzed wood, The outside of the box is completely unstained and bare wood. Those two things still don't necessarily make it so a box can't sound good. Ugly boxes can sound good as long as the parts that make sound are shaped and finished properly. But in this case, those parts aren't. The sound rails are a disaster. The waterproof paint used has lots of bubble holes in it. There is only about an inch in the center of the sounding rails that produce any sound at all. And only a small portion of that inch makes any sound that produces any volume. The ends of both sound rails produce no sound at all. The ends of both sound rails are flat. Once of them has a groove in it formed by poorly applied paint.The ends of the sound rails are imortant. On a well made box call, the ends of the rails should be usable for high pitched sounds such as kee kees. Or at least for the change in pitch when yelping to give that rollover sound. This box can't do any of that. It produces a fairly flat tones, albiet raspy, yelp. Super basic.IMO, this call is unacceptable. It's just sloppily made. If you want a "waterproof" box call, try the Primos Waterboard. It costs a bit more, but exceeds expectations. The QB Hurricane, until quality is improved, is a not a good choice for even a beginner. There are better options.

Pretty sure i can’t post a picture of a dead turkey but you get the idea, I yelped and I had three turkeys(one hen, one jake, one gobbler) screaming back at me over and over. All I can ask for out of a box call, does it’s job.

Easy to yelp and cut from the get go. I'm not sure if it was clear in the listing but the Hurricane model is billed as being waterproof. There is a coating on the paddle/box rubbing surfaces that seems to eliminate the need for chalk, giving you a consistent sound, and making it waterproof. I suppose a fair question is how durable this coating will be. I would think that when the coating has eroded the box may become basically useless. I can see no erosion developing yet after only 30 minutes or so of practice. Looks like a good inexpensive call. If the coating holds up for a couple of seasons or three I will be quite pleased.

This is my favorite box call of all time. I've owned them for years and buy them for family and kids interested in hunting. You can really crank out the volume and it is waterproof. Clean sound.
