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?

I would guess the call is close to 4" give or take a 1/4"

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:
John
