Box Calls / Re: Glued Box

Last post by mountainhunter1 - Today at 05:53:16 PM

I have a walnut box glued to a bloodwood bottom with a purple heat lid from Dr. Jim Shelly that is one bad machine. I have seen some Dale Rohm boxes that were also excellent. I also know that Kip has some calls that run really well.

Kip - while on this subject, what are the chances compared to a nonglued box for one to come apart in the woods? I have wondered about them as far as strength, but my guess is that is not likely to be an issue.

If a man was only able to buy one of your Ferocious boxes - which one would you recommend to us as the one you would choose to slay birds with?

In dawn's quiet hush,
Hunter waits, breath held, alert,
Gobble echoes near.

Great bird with a cool old gun. Sounds like the next step is a percussion double.

I've been following those on GB for some time.  Just haven't made that leap yet.

Trumpets / Wingbones Forum / Re: New to trumpet calls

Last post by Zobo - Today at 05:09:27 PM

I am new to the trumpet call world, seeing them called Trumpets/Soft call/tree yelper, are these different versions or diffrent names for the same thing.
Just got my 1st trumpet from Misfire.

A tree yelper and soft caller are the same kind of thing. These are special made trumpet calls, usually shorter and fatter in stature. They are supposed to be used in very early morning as turkeys fly off roosting sites. They play softer, lower and quieter.

However, most good yelpers have the built in ability to be played the same way, as long as the player has the control and ability to do so, which isn't too hard to learn.

Ain't nothing like fishing with the kids when they're young. Mine are at the age now where spending time with ol' dad sounds boring. Get that time in while you can! Those sunfish ain't bad either!
