I loaned my Old Personal Stribling to Billy Johnson for the Opening of the Mississippi Heritage Museum. I told him I would make a replacement as soon as Got Time. It's Time! I miss hearing "Sweetness" I added a few notches since this picture was taken. Something about an old box. This one seems to get better with time, or you learn the spots and rhythms those old boys seem to respond to. I made this box in 1987 and the holster the same year. The History of the Stribling calls are written about in Mr. Wineman's first book, East of the Slash. The first Chapter in Bird of Courage, That Ain't No Call, This is a Call is about this call.

Thanks for sharing. That box is very classic and I love those tally marks. Really really special call right there.

Glad to see you on here Mr. E. My wife plays the violin and says the more they are played the better they sound, especially the very best ones. Maybe the same with some box calls. Wade Wineman's books are amongst the finest in turkey hunting literature and I've enjoyed his recounting of your exploits together.

Just use a decent photo hosting site not named Photobucket. I use
Tinypic.com
due to my extreme dislike for Photobucket.
