Title: They are not for a shelf.
Post by: davisd9 on April 02, 2021, 09:51:27 AM
Fun hunt yesterday.  Had the highs and lows.  Missed a bird on a stupid move first thing but thankful for some redemption around 11:15.  Those calls look so much better doing what the builder intended for them rather than a shelf.

Been told my calls were to nice to take to the woods, told them that if you don't hunt it its a paper weigh.

Good deal there Donald . I agree with the run my 2021 Lignum Vitale has had so far this year , 2 Ocho Kills and 2 Easterns I'm going to pull out the 2020 Pernambuco or the Burmese Blackwood and let them have some of the glory ... Kennys calls sure do look good , but most importantly they are killers when you let them out to play !

Killed him straight off the roost. He was with a group of longbeards. They came in to a few yelps on the trumpet. Great hunt and I would not change it but not a lot to tell.
