Hey caller,

Let me see if I got this right.  You went to an apachie reservation and got all those pieces of tail.  All I can say is that I am glad you posted the picture with that story or there would have been all kinds of replies - most of which would not be any better than this one.   :biggrin:

Jerry, guess I was too brief.  Arizona San Carlos Reservation hunt.  We pulled tails and saved for next meeting of Arizona Varmint Callers Association.  Couple of bobcat skins on bottom.
PS  I'm the good looking guy on right .:>)   picture about 1960

Bob, dragging my feet- got your message.  A Rem .222 used , one weekend daylight to dusk, and of course my copies of the Circe calls.  Todd has one of my original  :>) Circe calls.  I turned them on base wood working shop, machinest made step  drill and bored calls on metal lathe, Jack Cain ( Circe Calls)  was a Barber over in Litchfield Az and would tune and give me reeds since I used Circes in contest.

That is awesome. I love history......all kinds of history. Ya got any old pictures of calls you used, firearms, other hunts.....just whatever ya got.  :wink:

Am I to assume when you are talking about Gerald, it's Gerald Stewart or is this someone else? I know some of you may already know, but I don't, so shaddup..... :eyebrownod:

Richard, did you work with Lew Mossinger?

Rich,  I didn't know or it didn't register with me on Lew.  I know he and Jack developed Circe together.  Jack did tell me that the calls were tested and each step accentuated a frequency ??   Not to brag but I have called coyotes with lots of different calls and think its reed tuninlg and technique-  however the big bell calls seems too loud and bass sounding for me.

Richard, why I asked is because Lew worked out at Luke also and turned the original wood Circes at the wood shop on base.

Todd,  your photography is great,  that call has had some use!  Rich,  figured Lew might have been at Luke,  possible in same shop as Bill Dudley.  I must have met him and just didn't remember.

I find the old pics of predator hunting most interesting.
Great calls you make, Sir. I am fortunate enough to own one. Great pure sound.
