Latest checkered calls
« on: May 27, 2010, 09:44:34 PM »


Still learning things here and there with each and every call that I checker.  And here are the latest ones.

All of the calls together




Thanks for looking,

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.

I am going to have to buy me a set of checking tools after I get my duck insert fingured out.  You make some of the nicest calls i've ever seen.
