Haven't made a turkey call in quite some time, but got orders for a couple recently. So I guess these are the first two of the season for me.
The first is osage orange, flamed with a Tru Oil finish four coats thick. I CA finished the striker, which is something I haven't tried on a striker before. It has a black anodized/blasted surface and a glass soundboard. It purrs and tree talks really softly and has good range all the way up to ear splitting loud. This one is going to a customer in Alabama.
The second is curly claro walnut. It has three coats of Tru Oil, buffed out to a low gloss finish. Slate surface and a glass soundboard. With the claro walnut striker it is pretty mellow and excels at the soft stuff. Not a high volume call, but really sweet rollover on the yelps. It was purchased by a friend of a friend for her dad as a late Christmas gift. I couldn't get a good picture of this one no matter what I tried.
