Quote from: blake_08 on February 06, 2018, 12:00:19 PMI ordered an outlaw hen and hot hen about a year ago from Lonnie. Both calls came and both were great sounding calls. Absolutely no complaints. They were marked "hand crafted by Lonnie Sneed, Sr." and had the date on them. My dad liked the calls so much that i gave them to him and decided i would order me some more. About a month ago, I placed my second order with Mr. Sneed and received the calls quicker than my last order. These calls are not marked "hand crafted by Lonnie Sneed, Sr." and the date is not on them. The 2nd hot hen slate is a killer sounding call, but I'm not satisfied with the 2nd outlaw hen i received. It does not play like or sound like the first call i received. It's almost like the surface is not conditioned the same. I'm going to call lonnie and talk to him, but i just figured I would share my experience.

I communicated via text with his grandson for my order last night. He told me they discontinued the covers. I wondered if the overall quality would be the same and whether or not Mr. Lonnie was still an integral part of the call building process. Please keep us updated on your conversation with him on the subpar Outlaw Hen.

He said he's too covered up with orders to take any calls back to rework them and that he's so busy fulfilling new orders he had to discontinue his covers. He said all he can tell me to do is get a conditioning stone and try to condition the glass more. To be honest I'm kind of shocked and disappointed with our conversation. Oh well I guess. If I can't get it to sound right I'll just put the call up. Good luck with yours. Sent from my SM-G930R4 using Tapatalk

This board has made the turkey hunting world seem really small. Word of mouth is everything.
