Title: My season is over
Post by: cannonball on May 14, 2012, 09:13:26 PM
I'm done for the year, season closed Sunday here in Tennessee. I'm a little sad it's over, but this showed up in the mail today to cheer me up.

It sounds real good. I got a #3 and #4 mouthpiece with it. Here's a neat little story about this call... I spoke to Mr Bucie on the phone before I ordered it and he was telling me about the history of the Osage wood he had and where it came from. The tree that was used for my call came from an area of Georgia that was rich in Cherokee history. When he told me that, I knew this was the call I was supposed to get. My Great Grandfather on my Mom's side was full blooded Cherokee Indian. When I told Mr. Buice about that he informed me that he had Cherokee blood in his veins as well. We talked a while about our family's history. We are both very proud of our Cherokee ancestry. I was extremely impressed when the trumpet arrived. It glows in the sunlight to the point it almost doesn't look like real wood. If anyone reading this doesn't have one of Mr. Buice's trumpets, I suggest you order one. I can promise you that you will not be disappointed in his calls.

Just got off the phone with Mr Buice. I ordered my own Osage trumpet that came from the Cherokee village. After reading cannonballs story about it I had to have one. My great grandmother was full blooded cherokee indian from OK. Billy seems like a great guy and I can't wait to get my call.

Congrats Joe, I know you make your own fine trumpets, but Mr. Buice is one of the originals. You will love it. The gobblers do back flips over it. It will be collectible one day.

PS. I was gifted one of your afezalea burl trumpets. She sounds sweet.

Got my Buice Osage trumpet today. I got a #4 and a #2. I wanted to try both ends of the spectrum. They both sound great. The #2 is just a little higher pitched. I guarantee you I could kill a turkey with it, today.

Good to hear Joe, he makes a killer trumpet!

That's great Joe. I've got a 3 and 2. The birds this year liked the number 3. I'm gonna get another one and get it with a 4 just to have one.

Eddie, just got olive wood and osage. Both are awesome!
Title: Re: My season is over
Post by: cannonball on May 30, 2012, 08:25:21 PM
How does the olive wood sound compared to the osage?
Title: Re: My season is over
Post by: jbrown on June 01, 2012, 02:35:45 PM
Eddie, the olive trumpet is a little louder, higher pitched, and sharper soundin, the osage sounds smoother and more mellow. Both will be gobbler killers!
