antler scraps

[John_NY]

I have been digging through my antler scraps to see if there were any pieces I could actually use and make a few calls from this past few days. These are a few of them. Comments are welcome.

Creative use of leftovers John. Nice.

I seen that title and I thought, "I'm sure he means scrapes, but where is he seeing antler scrapes worth talking about this time of year?"

That first one really stands out. Nice work.

The first one pictured with the double bell looks pretty interesting.  I like it.

Thanks fellas. It's hard to tell by looking at the first and last call but they are small enough on the end so they can be cupped with one hand and worked like a normal straight barrel call. Plus it keeps me turning until I get more antler.

  Good looking stuff there John! Those double barrel calls are neat!

I agree, the double bell looks interesting. How does it sound?

[John_NY]

I use the jc reeds in them so they sound pretty much as you would think except they give the impression of being louder. But that's because they are kinda close to your ears.    They're not too big so they can be muffled down by cupping your hand over the end of the call. I prefer them in open reed but they don't sell as well.
