Here are some tube callers I am sending to the Classifieds.....1. Red Mahogany 2. Big Leaf Maple Birdseye 3. Lignum Vitae 4. Walnut Regular tube call baffled 5. Red Mahogany 6. Red Pepper Laminate  .....  All the calls have brass insert except for the regular walnut call. The Laminate and the Red Mahogany bottle shaped call have wood lip stops and the rest have brass lip stops. Measure 2 - 2 -1/8" in height......thanks for looking pappy

thanks guys for the comments, the walnut regular is sweet, if only I could figure how flare out the brass for this style, that would be great....

Just wanted to say thank you again, all of these are headed to new homes, with expected kills built inside them all.

Hey Pappy,
Don't sell any tube calls to anyone near me.
I like being one of the few in my area that hunts with tubes. :toothy9:

Get a cone shaped wedge made out of steel or something harder than copper ( maybe and old work down Uni Bit. Leave the copper longer than normal. Beat it on to the wedge to flare the end. The end that you were hitting with the hammer cut off clean. Insert your wood

been thinking of trying a tube. how hard are these little guys to use?

Learning to use a tube call is like any other call, it takes practice but when you hear that first yelp or cutt or kee kee time melts and you find yourself constantly running that 2" long piece of pure turkey. Adjusting the reed tension is the key, and when it is right, it is right......one thing about the tube call, you can run it when it is raining, not like a slate call.
