It would be a toss up between a mouth call and trumpet, but I voted trumpet. If I had never started running a trumpet I would have said a mouth call.

These are both waterproof...use in any type of weather, very light weight and easy to carry. both can be carried on a lanyard around your neck. The mouth call can make so many different sounds, but again i selected the trumpet because its sound seems to carry. Birds just seem to flip out over it.

I love all turkey calls.   I like to admire them and run them all.  But my choice if I could only take one is the diaphram mouth call.  I know some have trouble learning to use one but they are versatile, small and easy to carry and can make some good turkey talk.  I love using one to close the deal because both hands are on the gun...

I wish I was better with a trumpet and that would be my vote. Have more confidence in a box.

Up until recently I'd have said diaphragm, because of its hands-free benefits for close-in work.  But if I had to choose today, I'd pick a box call, because I've got more confidence in my call-less calling recently.

I prefer long box's But I would say the call you are the most confident with.
