The wood is persimmon dyed with a green dye. 

Cannonball, would you mind sharing the reason for the green color?  I was touched by it myself.

I wanted the call green because it's my son's favorite color. He insists on wearing something green almost every day. That's his name (Tyler) that I had Wendell put on the back of the call. Tyler has autism, and will probally never be able to go hunting with me. I wanted something to always remind me of him while I was away turkey hunting. Wendell did a beautiful job on making this a very special call for me and my son. Thanks again Wendell.

That story also touched me cannonball. I have two siblings with autism.

Great looking call and very touching reason for the green.  I'm sure many turkeys will meet their maker with that call.

I bought two honey pot calls from Wendell back in July (Quarter-sawn White Oak slate call and Bubinga aluminum call).

They are both beautiful but not as fancy as yours and without the personal coloring.

I love them both and enjoy the different sounds they produce.

Turkey season opened last Sat and I got my first bird with them Sunday. 

When the birds hung up on the slate call, I switched to aluminum and they came running in.

Enjoy and thanks for sharing . . .
