A Call takes flight!

[culpeper]

I am about to deliver this caller in an hour for another Father's Day Gift.  Mahogany lid with a Curly Maple tail feather and Ipe inlays over a Red Cedar box chamber with "Bubble Maple" end blocks, set on an Ipe base.  This call was odd during tuning and 3 other Ipe lids I built, which in my eyes all appeared to be ideal didn't sound right, so I went to a little softer wood in the Mahogany and voila!!  With the tail feather on top and the breast feather on the side, this call looks like it's about to take flight.  Hope it rolls a mess of love-crazed gaga-eyed longbeards for the new owner.  Thanks for lookin everyone.

Pappy, an artist...well perhaps, but only in the sense of drawing (wood burning).  The heart and soul of my calls are first and foremost in sound quality.  I don't start any wood burning until such time the call is ready to hunt.  That's why in this case where no matter what walnut lid I tried the call didn't sound right (man was that frustrating ) , so I switched to a mahogany lid and a slightly different grain orientation and I got the turkey I was looking for .
