Caldwell makes a version of the claw that is very similar and cheaper priced. I tried ordering the Claw on an order i was making but it was out of stock, but they had the Caldwell in stock so I tried it out. Basically the same sling. It's called the Caldwell Max Grip Sling.

I have eying this sling for a while, how does it ride?  Stays put?

That ultimate sling looks good as well.

These problems of POOR LB performance go back quite a few years.  The very first offerings were GREAT!  Most 12's were putting up Great numbers, 250 to 280's at 40 with the right choke, for the first few years.  Then things went South.  Some said new wads, some said the Shot loc technology had changed but many had problems then.  Today, it seems it is Hit or Miss with many offerings, if you can find them.  Many went the LB route because at the time Hevi 13's were about $5 a piece, compared to a box of 10 LB's were around $20.  Now many are trying to find a suitable replacement for TSS that doesn't break the bank.  Those that have been around when the LB's were popular can elaborate more.

Quote from: zelmo1 on Today at 05:00:07 AMIt sounds like fun , but thats 9ish ours for me, lol. I would be in for a small rented hall that we could hang out at for a while. Maybe a small delivered meal, pizza or sandwiches. Breakfast is fine also, I would just drive down the day before. Keep me in mind for a later session please. Z

That's a definite possibility, going forward.

I have access to such a facility. Pretty remote...but only 20-25 minutes from Thee Log Cabin.  Has a kitchen.  BIG outdoor area.  Could seat 100+ inside.  It'd all depend on what kinda draw we could get.plenty of good lodging within 30-40 minute drive....

It's a thought.

It's definitely possible.

Box Calls / Re: Red Cedar & Poplar

Quote from: bbcoach on March 02, 2026, 12:34:34 PMBeautiful Call!  I especially LOVE the ingenuity and incorporation of 2 different woods for the rails, which should give the box 2 very different and distinct hens in this box.  Come up with an interchangeable lid system and this one box could have 4 or even 6 different hens in 1 box call.  I Love how you have thought outside the BOX!  Very inventive Bill!

I made a few of these several years ago. The big difference is I used Poplar and Mahogany two woods that sound
similar so there was only a slight variation in tone.  This time with Red Cedar and Poplar there is a huge
difference in sound.  With this combination it is like having two different calls.
