Just finished collector grade duck calls
« on: January 30, 2012, 03:55:27 PM »
Hello to everyone!!

I have been working with an artist and here are some of the results.  All of the calls are made by me but painted or wood burned by an artist.  Let me know what you think.




The above mallard call was made from African Blackwood with sap wood in it.




The above mallard call was made from Osage Orange from Dbroswood with wood burning art




The above is a wood duck call made from Cherry

We have not determined what to sell them for so if anyone has any sugestions let me know.  Its going to be hard for me to let these go but I know I can't keep every call I like.

Just an FYI, the additional artwork added by another artist adds about $50 to the price of the call.

You won't get money rich in this hobby.  The richness is in the culture, the craft, the friends you meet along the way, and being able to call in a wary game animal with a call that you made with your own hands.

Your calls are always nice.  The painted artwork really adds something extra.  The artist has some talent!
