Jim,
You can dump my old profile. This boar don't like AOL, so I came in thru cox.net. Cox is my main internet server anyway.
Bob D ,
I am very surprized at how authentic these molded buffalo howlers are. They look like buffalo horn, feel like buffalo horn and even sound like buffalo horn. I hope that my chosen molded call maker gets caught up soon. I have molded antler calls and molded killer calls coming, but boy they sure are slow getting here.
:yoyo: welcome back Rich
Rich,
Welcome. I also posted a welcome in another thread while working my way up to this one. I hope you enjoy it here and can share your knowledge about calls and calling.
Jerry
Rich,
Let me know when the killer calls are in. I own three molded buff horns, they are amazing, perfect pitch, ear shattering "Cronk" howl, probably indestructable. Welcome Rich, good call makers here and excellent fur handling advice.

Kee,
I have been so dang busy that when I took off and headed to K.F.C.'s Buffet for lunch today, I met myself coming back. Dang that is hard on an old fart like me. Been working on a cusom howler for Wiley E's calling pardoner. Dang thing don't want to smooth out on high pitched end of sound spectrum. A long distance phone call woke me from my afternoon nap today, and now I gotta make a special set of calls for a Fathers day present. No rest for the weary old farts I guess. :confused:
I hear ya Rich! Been busy myself! Just good to see you being so active! Looks like your feeling allot better now as well! :biggrin:
Brent
10,000 welcomes to you Mr. Cronk! It's an honor to be in such company. Can't wait to get me a Cronk howler.
Talk to ya soon
Joey Gacnik
Good to see you here again, Rich. Hope to see more of your work 'round these parts.

Those molded howlers sound the same as the old, regular type, authentic cow horn howlers? I bought one from you four or five........maybe six years ago. Dang my mind is going....... :rolleye:
Either way, It's a pleasure having you on the site Mr. Rich Cronk himself.......... :congrats: :wink:
Rich: so good to have ya here! :highclap:
Ol' Zip is in my hunting vest pocket ready for action. Can't hang him around my neck as he tends to boss the other calls on my lanyard around. :laf: Yeah, thank God for the reed cover as He knows it needs it! :iroll: :laf: Brilliant!
Bopeye,
Those molded howlers actually DO sound just like a real buffalo horn howler, and it is hard to tell by looking at one that it isn't really buffalo. These don't have a reed protector though. Mouthpiece is carved directly into the howler. A groove for reed retainer band was ground into the original with a dremel. All I do when the molded howler comes in, is cut a reed for it, install the red and fine tune the tone board with a file. One piece, seamless howler that is real handy to pack around all day.
V V you kill me :roflmao:
Rich,
Welcome my friend. Nice to see you here.
Loren
Welcome Mr. Cronk, I have one of your Howlers and audio. Good to have the main man here. cc
