Title: My first hooter...
Post by: Coulter on June 08, 2007, 04:46:00 PM
 :nofgr: Keep your minds out of the gutter. I have had more than one :eyebrow:

Actually this is the second design I made an owl hooter into. The first one didn't quite pan out. I am able to salvage half of the call though and will turn a new stopper for it tonight.

Bocote Owl Hooter...

It's an odd shaped hooter but if you're happy with it who am I to judge right?? :shrug:


:roflmao:

Seriuosly tho,, it looks good. Is there a reed of some sort inside or will it have an open reed?? :shrug:  I've never paid any attention to those in the store  before.

Sweeeeeeet.
If it's for sale...I'd like to consider buying it. I'm gonna get a sound clip of these hooters up here if it's the last thing I do  :laf:

And then...if you tell me I can buy it...I'm moving the whole dialog up to the Call Store  :innocentwhistle: :roflmao:

:wink:

Bob,

Selling Hooters in Ohio is illegal, but what happens in Las Vegas is a WHOLE different story.

Al has Hooter reeds in his store.  You can check them out at [beeep].  Dang Al what did you do here?

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas :innocentwhistle: :roflmao: :roflmao:

This is made with one of the reeds that Al offers on his site. It is most certainly not typical of most owl hooters (do they really have hooters?) but that is what I intended. I try to make my calls different when I can, sometimes they turn out like the "Ugly Betty" though. :iroll:

HaMeR...It is a two piece call that separates in the middle to expose the reed. Imagestation has been having problems with their server so I can't post anymore pics yet, I will when the server come back up though.

Jim, if you want this one it is all yours...the price is $23 to your door. PM me your mailing address and I will get it out to you.

When I saw you moved this Jim I had to check out where you had moved it. I was figuring you had moved it to FnF Humor, but I guess the hand call [or is that call hands store] is an equally appropriate location..... now I see your buying it  :shck: ... well guess I'm not really shocked, but it does seem to me they should come in pairs.... kinda a matched set  :confused: seems like thats how I always got them, but then again, I never bought them. Probably a fair price for a solo one  :eyebrow:

Stu,

Getting a perfectly matched set of Hooters is pretty difficult.  One always seems to be larger (or smaller) when you get two of them together at the same time.

Bob,

My wife and I did the Alaska cruise last August.  It was our first cruise and the 50 state that we visited.  I loved it.  While I have visited Nevada several times I have never made it inside the "Sin City" limits.

That sounds like my wife and me...Lets go on a cruise honey.

Response...Only if it takes us to Alaska and I can spot and stalk bears foraging the coastline. We haven't gone anywhere yet :roflmao:

We saw the bears several places as they dined on salmon.  Two walked under the bridge we were on (about 10 feet above the water) watching the salmon.  We were lucky in that they were blacks, not brown, and liked fish better than people.

Bob-- I got Lucky & was able to see the pics from Jerry's cruise. Thanks Again for sharing those Jerry!! :biggrin:  I doubt you'll even miss your guns on that one. Everything is overly scenic from what I could tell & I'm sure it would be a pleasure to just be there. I would like to take that cruise someday myself. :biggrin:
