I've had the itch to make a few calls lately.  I usually don't get the itch until September or October, but this year it has started early.  I usually take the summer months off, but this summer has gone by fast.  It's almost August next week.  :huh:  :holdon:


First is a stabilized Redwood burl with a black pearl sleeve and band.




Next is a burgundy dymondwood barrel with a brass band and a scalloped exhaust.




Then I have a cocobolo barrel with a moose antler band.




Lastly, is another burgundy dymondwood barrel with an aluminum band.  The scalloped exhaust has tear drops stippled into the scallops.




I tweaked my toneboards a bit to hopefully improve them.  I shortened the exhaust end and played around with the backpressure in attempts to reduce the amount of force it takes to push air through the call.  They'll scream LOUD for those windy days, but also get down and quiet when needed with no problems and no feelings of being out of breath at the end of a bunny distress sequence.





All comments welcomed and appreciated.

BigB there isn't many words that I could use to describe those so all I can say is very impressive :yoyo: :yoyo:.  If you want to sell any just pm me and I'll be the proud owner of some of them. :wo:
I say what I think not think what I say.

I think we ought to mess with Todd a little.  I think we need to see quite a few pics of his collection or even a debut of his website before he is able to buy any more calls.  :roflmao: :roflmao: :biggrin:  What do you guys think?


Barry, I don't sell too many calls.  Selling calls really doesn't interest me at this time.  But I've got something in the works for later this fall, so stay tuned.  It'll be fun!


Thanks to everyone for the comments.
