Box Calls / Re: Marlin Watkins

Plus, a combo so nice, I bought it twice: macassar over persimmon 
(Full disclosure I have twin sons, but I do highly recommend this wood combination)

Not sure, even if I had twin sons, I'd be giving up that pair.

Turkey Guns / Re: Bead or Red dot

Last post by TScottW99 - Today at 05:58:44 AM

I went from the bead to a dead ringer when I switched to LBXR. More for close range shots than out to 40. The tighter patterns required it for me and was not much different with tss. Once the reading glass disease started, I couldn't see both the ring and front bead, so went with red dots. Astigmatism makes them blur a touch, but tolerable. If that gets worse, I'll get a prism scope or quit. The evolution story of aging!

Have you tried a reflex with a green dot? I have an astigmatism as well. My Leupold Delta Pro and a Sightmark, both in red, are blurry for me. I bought a Holosun 507C green and it's perfectly clear. I've read that green can be better for some people with astigmatism.

There's a number of call makers that donated calls to that project that never happened. It and the money just faded way and yet I believe the guy still writes for the NWTF.

General Forum / Re: Top 3-5 Hunting Items you ...

Last post by callmakerman - Today at 03:56:34 AM

3 Items..  One was a Browning Stalker Synthetic stock 10 gauge... The Reason I sold the gun, it was like carrying a ball and chain while spring turkey hunting... LOL.

I wished now that I had kept it... It really was a nice shotgun...

I do still have some of the old Federal 4 / 6 that look at from time to time to remind me of my love hate relationship with that mule kicker / heavy weight shotgun...

The other gun I regarded selling was a Mossberg 835 - 3 1/2 inch short barrel gun... I had a love hate relationship with it also, it was a mule kicker also... I do have some of the old Federal 3 1/2 inch shells left from that gun... lol

The last one was the first real turkey vest I bought, it was a Lynch and I sold it to a guy for 20 dollars, NOW I really do wish I had it back.. It was a shoulder strap type vest with 2 box call pockets ...

Man I thought I was the only one crazy enough to shoot a mossy 835 with 3 1/2" Federals. Still have mine and it used to beat me up pretty bad at times. Now I'm shooting a Mossberg 20ga. and loving it. I think about using the 12 then I ask myself why. Still have that Lynch vest which was my first. It's a little beat up but it serves as my scouting vest sometimes.
