Several years ago, there was guy making a call he named Strumpet. Is he still making the calls does anyone have his contact info??
His name is Craig Corbett, and went by Cornbread. He had a business called Gobblers in the Shadows that still shows up on a web search, but the listed phone number was not active awhile back. Sorry I can't be of more help.
Thanks,
Does anyone have 1 forsale???
I'll PM you his ph number

Last I heard, Craig is not making calls right now.
Finding a used Strumpet or one of Craig's Biscuit calls for sale will be tough.
They are outstanding. Wish I had more.
I would like to see some pictures of these calls anybody got one?

Awesome caller. There have been many victims to her siren's song. :angel9:

I went looking for one not to long ago. I read an article about him in an old hunting magizine i found somewhere.
Nice pic AG.
Well that is a neat call nitro is it loud or can you sit down and work a bird with it pretty easy, as not over blowing it like alot of tubes are!!
It can be soft called with or hammered on. Depends on the skill of the operator.
I prefer the Strumpet to a tube call. I only have two of them sadly...woulda, coulda, shoulda....
If Craig starts production again, I will be ordering.
I seem to remember the story on him being pretty neat. He actually holds a patent on a call design or two....the strumpet being one of them.
AG, if you catch wind of him making a batch, please let me know. I would love to get one.

X2.
i read on another forum that he was currently in the process of moving, if somebody gets up with him though put my name in the hat to, if the guy has a new house to pay for i'm sure he would love to sell a few more calls!

thanks for sharing the article. I hope he starts making calls again soon
Craig is not making calls last I heard. I have tried to reach him unsuccessfully.
I will update this as more info comes available.
I remember talking with Craig a few years back, he can really excel when it comes to being motivated and innovated when it comes to making calls. I had made a few longer style tube calls during this time frame and showed him pics and asked if he felt threatened by them...lol... this is the last email I recieved from Craig....> Hello Pappy...although I certainly appreciate the guys looking after me

I spoke on Facebook the other day with his wife. He is not currently making calls.
:-\
I have a African Blackwood Strumpet and two biscuits he made me several years ago. One baffled and one un-baffled.
I will see if I can find it this weekend and post a picture.
Sounds like the trio I have.
