Title: New longbox
Post by: Chris O on February 10, 2020, 07:50:36 PM
I got this awesome call from Billy Bush tonight.Billy told me that he just uses Osage for the lids anymore. He said he has tried other woods but always comes back to what works. Anyone have any of his calls with different woods? I would love to see a picture if you do.

I don't think so . I am not sure what it is. I will try to remember to take another picture tomorrow. I think it's butternut or something similar. The sun was setting and gave it the gold tint. Someone else probably knows more about his calls than I do. All I know is they sound good and are easy to play lol.

Billy Bush beggin machine.
Osage over butternut. I don't think he makes any other wood combos. Great longbox, has a spring under the lid.

Billy's beggin machines are possibly the best paddle calls made. Killer calls!!!

I like the red inlays on the paddle, my calls from Billy have walnut inlays on the paddle.
