Title: Todd's hunting calls
Post by: Brad H on November 09, 2006, 08:33:00 PM
One down, one almost finished. Not meant to be pretty, yet charged with awesome distress potential. Complete with an optional lanyard groove.

You know what the stupid thing is? While uploading this pic I'm subconsciously frisking myself wondering where my chew is. :rolleye:

That is nothing more than the tip of a buffalo horn, fuzz. The Mighty Mouse is a supercharged high to ultra high pitched screamer.

It wasn't meant to be pretty anyway. It turned out nicer than I thought it would.  What the hell, I tried. :shrug:

A steady hand maintained at a consistent angle I think, Kurt. This is easily my best engraved writing job yet.

There will be more of these Joe. They won't come fast but they won't be limited or anything. If you want to make a trade for one let me know and I 'll put on the list.

Real loud, Rich. It's a full blown long range call with a nice rasp to it.

Brad , If you can get ahold of some youg calf buffalo horns , they make awesome calls. I have made some and they work great. Not much work to them as most of the ones I made were real thin,but had excellent sound to them. They break pretty easy though. Nice looking call you got there buddy.    :highclap:

Jerry, yucca and cb223...Thank You!

These are all fairly thick tips, Jerry. I cut'em right off the end of a full size horn and some start out solid from the get go. The calf ones are easier to work with though, that's for sure. Hell of a lot less dust too.

Hey stray,
If you start talking pervs and naming names, leaving Bop off that list will just infuriate him even more. :biggrin:
