First Set of Calls for 2008
« on: January 27, 2008, 10:28:13 AM »
This is my first set of 2008, all out of Osage orange.  One closed reed old style, an open reed distress and a JC reed call.  This set is going to stay in Texas.

Beautiful calls.  The burnt accent lines realy make the ossage pop.  Nicely done!

Very nice. I love working with osage. The colors are great, and it is really interesting to see what you are going to get when you turn it. I love your calls. I really like that old style call. I am going to have to learn to make those.

Thanks for the comments.  I have to say that Osage is a dream to work with.  Very few woods turn as easy as it does.  I like the color, but this batch was rather plain compared to some that I have gotten.  Maybe better luck next time.

I concur on the Osage....I like to burnish my Osage pieces...they really pop!  We are lucky here in south Mississippi where we have lots of Osage or as we call it BoDock.........
