Got some new & old scratchers.
« on: February 22, 2016, 08:45:02 PM »
Picked up two from Lonnie Gilbert and Denny surprised me with three that he felt could use a good home with a scratch box junkie. Wood combo's for Lonnie's are Holly/Ebony and Purple Heart/Butternut with sassafras sound board loaded with turkey. Great calls for sure. Denny sent me two Mitchell scratch boxes made in 1995 with one being an old hen and the other being the big jake both in sassafras wood. The last one is made in 1995 by Luke Saunders in all cedar. Love the old scratchers and the history behind them. Can't thank Denny enough for this fine gift and yes they have a good home.

Bill is there any engraving is on Lonnie's calls?  I like the one he does with the hunter and dead gobbler.
