Call makers don't normally make a lot of money after the cost of materials and tools. Most of these guys are just passionate artists.

Let's see the most beautiful calls you have in your collection.

Here are a couple of my favorites -

A 1920 with desert ironwood by Mr. Permar:


Nice set of bones by Mr. Ezolt:


Maple over persimmon my Mr. Snodgrass:


A quality paddle caller will most run itself.  It just needs someone to carry it around the woods. Yoder409
Over time...they come to learn how little air a good yelper actually requires. ChesterCopperpot

The good Lord ain't made a gobbler I can't kill.  I just gotta be there at the right time.....  on the day he wants to die.
