These will be the last calls for a few days from Arky....I will be out of town until Sunday.
These are special to me, I worked all day on 2 calls :duh:
At any rate, it will be up to ya'll to se if it was worth it....
The first is brown cow horn body, with a black cow horn mouth...this call made me sick....I had about three hours in it, and when I put it in the vice for the glue up, I guess I put too much on it, as it is turned thin...and it got a hairline crack....the crack is filled with epoxy, and I am certain it will never go further, but it is there and it was really a kick in the, well...you know....finding a piece of antler I could do a call this large with was great...then POOF....at any rate, here it is....

secondly, a piece of whitetail antler married to a piece of black cow horn....this one did as it was supposed to, seamless and I was proud of the way it went together...
