Title: 3 piece distress call
Post by: John_NY on September 23, 2009, 10:58:05 PM
I just finished this call up and was wondering what you guys think of the way it looks. The barrel is Elk antler and the mouth piece is whitetail antler with a piece of bloodwood in the middle for the lanyard groove.  I usually make them in 2 pieces so I wasn't sure what you would think of a 3 piece distress call.  I lightened up the second pic. so you can see the bloodwood a little better hopefully.

Thanks
John

John,

It looks like you are having way too much fun with the antler.   :wink:  What is the size of your call?

Thanks Charlie. The antler shines as much as the wood  but you can ask Alscalls about my picture taking skills. He likes to bug me.  :doh2:  The finish is just a couple dips in poly. I like to make sure the antler smell is sealed inside and out for the sensative types.  :roflmao:  :roflmao:
