Checkered Blackwood open reed

BigB · March 12, 2011, 11:52:37 AM

I haven't made too many predator calls lately, as I've been working on duck calls. While I am working on the duck calls, I keep getting this itch to make a predator call. So, I gave into the itch and turned out this open reed, which is the first predator call that I've made in about a year.

African Blackwood checkered at 16 lpi, aluminum band and my own hand crafted toneboard.

Comments and critiques welcomed.

Thanks,
Brian

I have to say, that's the best predator call you've made for about a year.

Nice work Brian.
