I did up a few calls this week and thought I would show them. Been turning some wood. I am almost out of antler and waiting for a shipment from a friend in Montana. In the meantime these are what I have been playing around with.

Beautiful. The further down I scrolled the better they got. It was like watching the fireworks

Thanks fellas I appreciate the comments.

I got a few done Bill but I can't keep up with you. You're a turning machine.

That walnut & antler sure has a nice shape & look to it.

Well they all do really but that one noticed me the best.

Ever since I started drilling my calls on the lathe turning got easier set the lathe up cut and drill 5 or 6 blanks one evening then set up to turn and in about 3 hours the next evening you have 5 calls done

Thanks Glen. I can't remember the name of that Walnut but it's not like the local stuff I get. I got it from heirloom "Brian" in La. I think it's from England.

Bill, I usually try to make one call a day. Sometimes I don't get to it until 3:00am after coyote hunting but I try to get one done anyway.

Yes you can but I think maybe the word won't comes into play here.
