Recently found a turtle shell slate call made by Eric Pritchett, Pritchett's Custom Calls. It is signed by Eric and marked " 01-07 N.W.T.F." Has a marked corn cob striker with it. I assume it may have been a banquet auction item? Seems he was I Kimberley; Al. But; that is all I have been able to find. anybody know of this maker. Call sounds great; BTW.

That's a nice look call. Never heard of this maker but the call itself may have been entered in the national competition for the NWTF. They used to have a category at one time for this style call. It was dropped a number of years ago though.
Heard using turtle shells is illegal in some states??
