I have been making these hooters out of plastic for about 30 years and thought I would try my hand with wood.

Nice HOOTERS !! :biggrin:
Ya' going to be making and selling them?
What? Where's the chicks? :shrug:
That brown one is sure nice :innocentwhistle:.
Hey very cool. Let's here some more about them.
Let me take this step by step.
Yes, I am going to be selling them and the price is $12.50 each.
The brown call is made from mahogany with walnut end pieces and mouthpiece. The other 3 are made from colored laminates.
These seem to have a better tone than the plastic ones I have made and others that I have tried.
I am in the process of making another dozen or so for a show at the end of next month.
Blacky,
I will buy the "brown call is maple from mahogany with walnut end pieces and mouthpiece" if you still have it. Heck of a deal for a call that works on Hooters!

Send me a PM or email.

I love the old style...... Nice job Gene and a good price! :yoyo: :yoyo: :yoyo: :yoyo:
Jerry, you have a PM.
If you got another one of those mahogany hooters laying around I'll take it. :innocentwhistle:
You snooooze you lose, Barry.
I'm looking forward to the next batch also Gene. I think I'll be picking one up too. :eyebrownod:
semp and Fins and Fur, I am in the process of putting together some more of the mahogany hooters as we speak. I will get back with you when they are ready.

:shock2:
Aw (L) I apologize if I made it sound bad cause I sure didn't intend too :sad:.
Blacky,
Just wanted you to know that the Hooter arrived today and it is better "in the hand" than on the "net". Also wanted to let you know that it does work very well as a locator call. I started a few hoots and my wife calls from the other room, "What is that?" I knew right where she was.
Jerry
:alscalls:@ Jerry
X 2 ^^^^!! :alscalls: :alscalls:
Thanks Jerry but you better be careful with that call because the wife may decide to use it on you. :alscalls: :alscalls: :alscalls:
I got my hooter today, and I gotta say...as simple as this thing looks, it's even simpler to use. :yoyo:
I figured I'd be blowing this thing for days (whew that did not sound good) :doh2: trying to get an owl sound.
But it didnt happen that way. Got er on the first try...and every try after that.
Awesome sound. Thanks Gene :highclap:
Glad that you received it and everything was ok. I am also happy that you like it.
Thanks,
Gene
