Some amazing work bud.

Finally.....this is the last one....LOL!!!

In 2019, I decided I was going to make some Turpin style box calls.  Little did I know what I was getting myself into when I started.  It's been an interesting learning process, and I have enjoyed meeting and getting to know some very fine people.  This is the last of the Turpin boxes I cut out and started in 2019.

Yesterday a customer posted on FB this picture of a fine gobbler he had killed hunting with one of my Turpin style hen boxes. Looking at the picture I can tell this turkey call has been hunted.  This is why callmakers enjoy making turkey calls. Turkey calls should show the battle scars and blood stains of days afield. The memories you make hunting with a turkey call will last long after the days to hunt are past and shelf ornaments have no value......

I think the artwork on the darker wood looks sweet. Keep the great work up.
