Hunter Specialties Paul Butski Series Calls
Paul Butski is one of the the OG’s of the turkey calling world, making him the perfect choice for a partnership with Hunter Specialties. Butski is a renowned turkey hunting expert and champion turkey caller that lends his skills to develop a new line of calls for Hunter Specialties. The new line includes the Butski “Long Stroker” boat paddle box call and Butski “Original” Cutter mouth calls.
The box call is a great locator call and is plenty functional for close in work as well. In reaching back to the past, Butski delivers an old favorite in mouth calls. During the height of his calling career, Butski designed the “Cutter” cut in 1980 propelling him to the top. He designed this cutter call as a 3 reed, stretched extra tight. It’s now better than ever in the H.S.

Houndstooth Success Call
Houndstooth Game Calls is bringing a revival to an oldie-but-a-goodie turkey call with the sweet sounds of success. The “Success Call” was created by the late Earnest Black. The call is a re-creation of a call that never got its due. There is no other call on the market that produces the sound you get with this call. The Houndstooth crew says they are honored to continue the legacy of the “Success Call” for modern day turkey hunters.
