Title: Found while hunting
Post by: THO Game Calls on February 02, 2007, 10:43:56 PM
Finished these two up this week.  The barrels of these two calls were made with materials I found while hunting.  One is Moose Antler and the other is a piece of spated maple.  Both were just laying there on the ground, waiting to be turned into calls.

Soon as I get some time, I will post them on my site if anyone is interested in either one

Sorry Todd, but the deal was that while the Boss was away for the LBL and you were left behind playing Demigod, you were not eligible to speak up for any calls that came available on FNF.    :nofgr:

Al, beautiful calls and a great find for you and whomever gets them.    :highclap:

Doh! Larry can't I just be a demipeeon .  :confused:

Actually when Jim left, he left me the check book and assigned me as the Official FNF'R Procurement Administrator..........he just didn't leave any guide lines with what to procure, and how much I could use to procure it.  :biggrin:

Kinda nice when no one else is here to say other wise.  :innocentwhistle: and point out the fact that I may or may not be fibb'n a bit.  :shck:

Al,  what can I say? You always amaze me. I love the maple, but that moose antler is awesome. Great finds and beautiful workmanship. Brian.

Al,

Those call look fantastic.  Somehow I just don't think the raw material looked nearly as good as the finished calls.

Well when it grows like a wild here and the wind blows the tree down in my yard I have to do something with it.
