Was there before it opened at 9AM on Friday and it was already crowded. Didn't go too crazy. Got a Lonzo stoned aluminum, Lonzo glass/carbon fiber along with a JLH Katalox and Kingwood striker. Also a Buster Halford crystal pot and a Glenda Green long box holster.

Excellent turn out and good to see some old friends and chat with the callmakers.

Trumpets, pots and strikers.
Met some old (old)friends and a few from here. Davisd9, Tal, Yoder409, EZ, and a few others.  It was a pleasure meeting you all.

First time going to Unicoi yesterday and ALL of the makers are fine people and it was a pleasure to meet all of them.  Thanks to Mark and team for putting on such a great event!

Let me qualify that I am not a huge friction call user, but I admire the craftsmanship and effort that they all put in to make them.  There is no better place on the planet to see that many and buy those!

I focused on finding less common items that caught my ears so here are the main items purchased:

- Dan Harris friction box hybrid (super soft calling machine)
- Nathan Taylor apple tree yelper
- JLH frogwood and olive strikers
- Tom Osmer becote tube
- Ralph Pemar Improved Jordan yelper
- Glenda Greene call holsters
- ? Canada goose wingbone

Does anyone know the name of   Maker at the Living the Dream table that was at the far back left? That's where I got the goose wing and thought I had his information or card, but couldn't find it when I got home and can't remember his name.

I went back to get that Osage Pot and it was gone.  It was a killer.

At Unicoi, I bought a Twisting Creek Bloodwood over Mineralized Poplar.

Can't wait to try to make one gobble with it!
