Anyone interested in participating in a traveling turkey call this spring season? The way a lot of us see it, the guy who gets to make it is a pretty lucky guy, so the purpose of that thread is to solicit nominations for the maker. I think it is most appropriate for the THO "family" to democratically choose the peer which will receive this honor. If you'd like to make the call, opt in by nominating yourself. If you'd like to nominate someone else, post it here and if they're willing to accept the nomination (and if they're a turkey call maker) that's great too. Nominations will remain open until 11:59pm next Friday night.
After we've got nominations and volunteers, we'll put it to a vote of the members in a separate poll thread. You do not have to be participating in the traveling call rotation to vote, so all THO members are encouraged to participate. The call will go back to the maker or elsewhere at the maker's discretion. If there is enough interest, we may even designate 2nd and 3rd place as regional traveling calls to ensure that everyone that wants to hunt the call will have the opportunity.
Any type of turkey call is great. Pots, boxes, scratch boxes, anything goes. Just like the traveling duck call, all participants will sign the call after hunting with it, then mail it to the next guy ASAP.
Still waiting for a couple of the mods to weigh in on their stances, but I will decline any nominations for myself, as will Parker. We really want this to be about the folks that make THO tick as well as the folks that are keeping this craft alive, and that is you guys.
So get started thinking about the callmaker that has helped you out, inspired you, befriended you, posts calls that you like, etc!
