Title: The MUD BUG has been born
Post by: KentuckyHeadhunter on September 04, 2016, 09:58:08 AM
Some of you may remember a while back I suggested that Crawdad, Robert Glover, make a trumpet from mud cured Osage and call it the mud bug, a southern nickname for crawdads.  He loved the idea and took off with it.  Here is the result.  I think the pic speaks for itself!
Thank you Robert for such an amazing sounding and looking horn!  This is the most beautiful call in my collection and will certainly make it to the woods next spring.  I am floored.  :thanks:

As always Robert has turned the tail feather of a big O'l' Tom into one of the nicest trumpet callers out there. I bet he has his vocal chords hid up inside too.....
