Great looking call! I love a leapordwood pot. Just not crazy about turning the stuff. That one sure turned out great.

I would say it's awful to cut, horrible to turn, tough to sand and difficult to finish- other than that it's a great wood to work with!

That is Sweet Meat on the table right there...uh-huh....I have to agree with the pain in the back turning the stuff. I had just as soon try to slap a bull with my legs tied together as to work with it, you did an excellent job!!!!! pappy

I've always wanted to try sycamore. Maybe I'll push it to the top of the list.
