I thought I'd give Ugly Betty a run for her money. Although she wasn't really ugly, this one certainly is. I've been messing around with this thing, just a little at a time, for a couple of months now - I wanted it to turn out kind of wacky. Although I put more time in it than I should have - I can't say I'm real fond of it. Looks like a ray-gun or something. It's made of brown mallee (Australia) and pink ivory (somewhere...Africa I think). Wailin' rabbit voice. Somebody have a heart and take this thing home. Best offer takes it. Deadline Thursday, 6/21, at 11pm EST. (All proceeds go to the "Help Pilgrim Hunt Fund").
Edited to add: I forgot to mention that the mouthpiiece is asian water buffalo horn. The call is about 3 1/8" long and 1 1/4" wide at widest part.

I like it $50 if its signed and dated :biggrin:
edit to add not only do I like it I DON'T have any pilgrim calls yet :yoyo:
A ray gun? :roflmao:
Looks kinda nifty. She's got a Purgatory tint to it. :wink:
No offense moving the post Pat...just trying to keep all the calls sales in the Store. :wink:
Oops, sorry Jim.
Wood and finish look great ! Perty cool.
Don't know looks purdy ugly to me. I think you just give that one to your brother so he could hide it in his pile of hunting stuff. LOL... what do you think ? : :wo:
Welcome to the site shooter......can we draw off that and assume your the brother :biggrin:
I think that's a cool lookin call there Pilgrim!!<<John Wayne voice. :laf:
I bet George Jetson would really like it too!! :roflmao:
Honestly tho I think you've just added another way to turn a piece of wood. It's a really cool lookin call!! Nicely Done!! :congrats:
Yep, Jim...Shooter's my bro and huntin pardner. Thanks for the good words fellas. And thanks for the generous bid Bowjunkie...sign and date is not a problem sir!
Bowjunkie - Looks like she's all yours. Thanks again for the bid! I'll send ya a PM for the particulars.
Pilgrim,
That's a nice call, a bit from your normal style, but still a nice call. If Bow wouldn't have beat me to it, I would have made an offer, but collector etiquette leaned me towards honoring Bows stake on the call, and I think it was the same for another collector. This doesn't mean I won't ever bump one up or take a jab at it, but it would be an extremely special call, and the other collectors would know first hand I was bidding. (Matter fact I was jazzed when I saw, and cringed when I seen the next post) :innocentwhistle:
I figured I had two of your calls, and plan to add many more. So it was an easy choice for me. So I wanted you to know first hand, that it is a top notched call, and I didn't make an offer, because I didn't want it, but because I was exercising good manners. :biggrin:
