Title: Squirrel Call...UPDATE for Brian
Post by: John_NY on June 05, 2009, 08:30:32 PM

I got in the shop today and decided to make a call for myself. It is a Dymondwood squirrel call. I didn't put a lanyard groove in it because I always just pop it in my pocket.
Comments or suggestions welcome.

NOPE, Don't like it. It doesn't fit you. Ain't no horn in it. I just ain't proper for you to be huntin' with no horn on your call. Nice lines though and it does look good, BUT, it needs some horn in it to be one of YOUR calls.

ok Brian, I took it back out in the shop and pulled off the bellow and put some antler dust in the bellow. Now everytime it barks it spits antler dust. Will that qualify it?  :rofl:

 :pot:  I can tell from the picture, that if it were my personal call, I'd take the reed assembly out, and turn it around, and re-insert it in that direction rather than how it is now.   :rofl:   :rockon:

AF, I already ran out of room on my new "very pretty" lanyard. Maybe I should make some kind of call rack You know like a gun rack for the vehicle I might need a call rack.  :rofl:  :rofl:
