Awesome, man!!

Me too! I watched it almost as many times as Ive watched Turn, Washington's Spies and I'll prolly watch it again. Its a lot better than most of the garbage that they make

That is awesome man, congratulations!! I knew you'd get it done!!

You did a good job on that scratch box Secesh, I bet it sounds good! A well built scratch box call can hold its own against any other type call built in my opinion, they just sound like a turkey! Who made the original call, I have seen that type before just can’t remember who made it. The...

Thank you for the kind words and I am glad you like your trumpet, I surely do appreciate it!! It was fun to work through the build with you! Sure hope to see a picture with it on a big ol bird this spring!!

I think there are a bunch of factors including predation and disease. I know that the decline started with a late hard freeze up here that eliminated a food source, at least I started noticing the next few following years. Had a bunch of turkeys, then they are just gone. Another thing to pay...

I grew up in Northwest Mississippi. Had a buddy come to Arkansas this weekend to fill up on calls for their season. I wish the biologists would figure out this decline in birds, its gettin depressing!

I appreciate that Walt!

Ha! I hear you!! I have the same addiction, which is a big reason I started making them years ago!

I do love Trumpet calls. The ones pictured are curly maple, Bocote and African Blackwood. I am making a few right now with some acrylic-like plastic. They sound great! Trumpet calls will test your patience early on as you start making them but once you kind of figure them out you can get...

I appreciate the compliment! Our birds may be rebounding also, there has been a very long dry spell here!

Thank you, I do not have a website as of now but may in the future.

I posted on the Non Muzzleloading Discussions forum.

Great job! I posted a bunch of calls that I made on the non muzzleloading forum. I included a picture of a box call and leather sheath that I made if you are interested in looking

I feel your pain! My shop is a mess!! Sure feels good the first day after a good cleanup though, I just stand around and stare

This is a busy part of the year for call makers. With duck and deer seasons behind, I have been swamped with the diaphragms, box calls, scratch boxes and trumpets! I try to keep a few on hand in case somebody wants one already made instead of a custom build. Here are a few that I finished up...

Ive never tried to bark a squirrel but maybe I should have learned. Most old timers in both sides of my family would change moods real fast when you would show them how good of a shot that you are with a bunch of head shot squirrels. Hard to eat squirrel brains and eggs if you don't have any...

Yes I also made the sheath. Thank you for the comment poker, I appreciate it!

Thanks CG, I appreciate it!

I think it looks great!
