Favorite grunt call?

I have tried a number of different grunt calls over the years and have had the best luck calling deer in with softer calls. Primos hands free and rubberneck have been the best store bought calls. Natural voice has worked about as well as those two. I carry a rubberneck but most of the time will just voice grunt, esp if it is still and quiet.
 
It would be interesting to record various grunt calls from both up close and at a distance and listen to the playback for a comparison.
 
Also bought the Quaker Boy yesterday. Needed some detergent and the local shop had the Quaker Bow as well. I've used the extinguisher in the past, but it broke on me last season so I was in need of a replacement.
 
I couldn't help myself and picked up one of the phelps that was recommended earlier in the thread. It sounds really good but not nearly as loud as the Quaker boy. The QB has a deeper, "older" buck sound to it as well.
