Title: Elk calls for a Friends wife
Post by: Austy on August 21, 2013, 09:40:52 PM

These are a couple of cow elk calls that I did today for my best friends wife.  They spend a week out in elk country here in PA each year so I though I would make her a set of calls so she can put them to work when she visits the PA Elk herd this year.  His set is next on my "to do list".  The Bite type call has a set of Al's mouth pieces set into the call body.  The "Open Reed" call has a mouth piece Tone Board and Wedge that was cast from one of my origional mouth pieces sets that I made and made of mold for.  The mold has a few imperfections that I will try to correct with my next mold but worked out well, all in all.  The cast was made using Alumilite with a red dye.
