Title: Count down to gobble time!
Post by: antnye on December 17, 2018, 06:53:21 PM
As winter sets in and the year winds down.  Turkey talk starts to pick up to almost a loud whisper. The countdown to spring turkey breaks the 100 day mark. My favorite time of year is almost on the horizon. Although call building helps extend the addiction all year for me.  I can't help contain the giddy anticipation of that first spring gobble. Hang in there! It won't be long now my friends!

A few of the nicer sticks I've turned and sent to new roosts recently.

Those are all beautiful Anthony, but that Desert Ironwood is something else.

Very nice!  Heard one gobbling several times on the deer stand one afternoon recently, got me fired up and ready to go after him.   :z-guntootsmiley:

All of those are gorgeous calls Anthony. All of mine from you are deadly in the turkey woods. Gentlemen, if you don't have one of Anthony's calls you should!

Anthony sure can build a horn.  The sound and playability is up there with the very best.  I have trumpets from Buice, Cox, Permar, and many more....but I hunt with my A.G.E.
