Title: Scratch box Merriam's
Post by: Rapscallion Vermilion on April 18, 2015, 05:02:09 PM
It is the first week of our New Mexico season.  This 2 yr old came in real hot this morning for my SS Custom scratch box.  He started in from a couple hundred yards out and was fired up the whole way in.  I had put another call away and decided to try my scratch box which I have just begun carrying this year. It really made me a believer in these handy and unique sounding calls.
