I have not been buying much because I still do not know if I am going to have to move, but this was my CHRISTmas/birthday gift to myself this year. I have been trying to get a call from him for some time, but never seemed to have the money when he had an opening until now. The lighter colored call is the better representation of the call, guess I did not have the flash on for the darker picture but it shows the grain well so I will post it anyway.

Beautiful Steve, fantastic call there...
Thank you, rolls over very well, when I do it right, I have not been touching my calls because of everything going on here but things seem like they may be improving, may be able to stay after all, but I will not count on it and prepare for the worst.

Like I said I have not been touching my calls a lot lately so I am VERY out of practice and not the greatest to begin with. I feel when it comes to trumpets, yelpers and wingbones that I am doing the makers a disservice when I make soundbites, but if you really want me to I will make one and send it directly to you.

Thank you and thank you. I have a lot of practicing to do, when I thought I was going to have to move right away I boxed up all my calls in bubble wrap and then boxes, labeled them and stuck them all in a Sterilite 40 gallon tote to protect them. The most expensive calls also went into a couple of dry bags before they went into the tote. I really do need to get practicing again.

Thanks, my first call from that wood, very pretty and when I hit it right it really does have a nice sound. I just have to get most consistent.

Nice one, good pickup on that one


Practicing is a good stress reliever whether your moving or not.
you should pick it up for 10-15 min each day, it's good for you
