Title: Special Gift for my Dad
Post by: DrakeSprig on February 11, 2011, 08:59:43 PM
My dad's true passion has always been turkey hunting. He started taking me to the turkey woods at a very young age (my 2 sister's don't hunt) and him and I have spent countless hours chasing turkeys around Southeast Missouri. He has always put himself first and has never justified buying anything "upscale" for himself, since it was usually one of us that wanted something instead. So this year for Christmas I thought of the perfect gift that could combine his favorite things into one. I am currently in optometry school but I graduated from Mississippi State University and my little sister is currently a freshman cheerleader there, while my older sister attended the University of Alabama. I thought this call would be the perfect way to give him a little reminder of us while he was out chasing big toms around the countryside. I couldn't be happier with the way this turned out and it surely put a big smile on my dad's face when he opened it up! So two big thumbs up to Scotty Maddux for his willingness to customize this call for me and make something that is truly special to me and my family. Enjoy!

Nice story and a nice call.  A hand made gift is always better than a store bought one.   :z-guntootsmiley: :z-guntootsmiley: :z-guntootsmiley:
