Finally
« on: July 01, 2015, 06:35:50 PM »
Well here it is . it's been along time coming I can finally say this is my first reelfoot call after around forty trial inserts and talking to all you knowledgeable gentalmen that have helped me on my way . I can say I'm completely addicted to this style call. This one is figured walnut with Osage insert and stainless reed with a CA finish. And a special thanks to Fred for the Reed and Jim Buggs contact info he's a great guy to work with. Thank you

That is a very nice Reelfoot call Ryan!  Way to hang in there and learn to make them.

Looks like a fine piece of craftsmanship.  That walnut is about as purty as it gets too.  Well done.
In life or anything worth partaking, if you have stopped trying to improve you have quit.

Thanks guys reel foot calls show off nice pieces of wood well. I've saved quite a few nice pieces for when I learned to make reelfoot style.

Nice job! Very rewarding knocking out that first one isn't it?
