WoodHaven Custom Calls

About WoodHaven Custom Calls

WoodHaven Custom Calls was founded in the late 1980s by Mike Pentecost, who started making turkey calls as a hobby in his grandparents' basement.

What began with a burning desire to become the best turkey hunter possible evolved into an incorporated business around 1998-2000, with the founding principle "to build the very best turkey calls, period."

The company has grown from a basement operation to a barn, and finally to their current facility in a former sewing plant in Heflin, Alabama.

Mike Pentecost has become a living legend in the turkey woods, earning recognition as a member of the Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame and receiving the National Wild Turkey Federation's Dick Kirby Award for Excellence twice.

Today, WoodHaven continues to handcraft premium hunting calls with exceptional customer service they call "the WoodHaven way," celebrating 25 years as an incorporated business in 2025.
