I've also been video taping the kids quite a bit. I've got 1/2 hour of the girls just learning to ride their bikes. I'll do the same when it warms up enough for them to get into the pool in the back yard even though they've been able to swim for two years now. I found a tape of them from '03 and couldn't believe the difference...it just didn't seem that long ago.

About that call...I spent a lot of time detailing it. I probably worked on it for two months off and on specifically for this thread. There's only one other one like it somewhere in TN. I'm anxious to send it off to the recipient.

I plan on doubling my cat take this time around. I'll keep you guys updated.

Thanks so much everyone!!!

Brad,
As usual a TOP NOTCH HOWLER.  I really enjoyed hearing about your family.  You are a very blessed man!  Hope you are still thinking of a unique open reed antler call for me.  I love the calls you have made for me and I know the lucky winner of this howler will be hooked for life on the sport of calling.  Have a Great Weekend,

You've come a long way since you began call making Brad. I remember those first ones very well.

Brad,

Great writeup.  Glad to see that you have your priorities in line in that your family comes first.  Call making can come and go, but your family will last much longer.  You did an excellent job on that howler.  I am sure that I am like everyone else and am hoping that my name will be pulled.  But if it is, or if it isn't, nice call.

Brad,
I enjoyed reading about you and your family. Very nice family BTW. I have several of your calls and they are some of my favorites. Your work is just pure quality and the results ( the calls) show from every angle,  the time and attention you put into them. Did I mention they work as well a they look? I've had good luck using your calls , your buffalo howler goes with me whenever I go hunting. It is my number one predator call. Am I a Brad H call fan? You betcha!!!

THO Game Calls

I'm he proud owner of two BradH calls, and they are among the finest in my collection.  But they don't sit on the shelf - they get used - and used alot. 

Great calls from a great call maker.  You just can't go wrong with one or two of Brads calls in your bag. 

Beautiful howler in the showcase Brad - Who evere wins it will be luckier than if he hit a lottery jackpot.

I enjoyed your write up Brad.......didn't realize you were in the oilfield. I had an uncle up in Roundup, Montana that worked for a pump outfit, my dad spent several years in the oilfield. It was a second job for several years and then for a few years became a full time endeavor. My grandpa was also a well known oilman up in Gillette, Wy., Sterling Colorado and McCook, Nebraska. He was a vice president of an independent oil producer named Rex Monahan. He worked for Skelly/Getty before that.
I love your howler in this showcase, but that one you have in your banner with the flames is gorgeous.

Keep on truckin with your pursuits and remember that family comes first........as you already well know.  :congrats:

Simply put.... AMAZING... and wonderful family....

Thanks for all the great replies fellow hunters! I can't say enough about this showcase idea Jim and Brent put together. And it's a privilege to be a part of it.

Bop, I knew you lived in WY, but I didn't know you had oilfield ties either. Roundup is still there, but not much happening that I've heard. WY and CO are both exploding as I'm sure you know. It's an interesting business from every angle.

Brad,

That is one of the most incredibly detailed calls I have seen.  Superb work.  Excellent write and pics of the family.
