Turkey Call Classifieds / Breedlove Figured Olive Trumpe...Last post by Notsoyoungturk - Today at 08:17:51 PMHere is another call that hurts the soul to sell but I have another beautiful Breedlove ironwood call and the farm has been a lifelong dream. This is a figured olive call with a brass ferrule and a cork lipstop made by Marvin Breedlove (Tarheel). Excellent callmaker and wonderful gentleman. It has never been hunted. Will make a great call for someone this season. $300 shipped. Venmo or Paypal (add 3% for goods and services).

General Forum / Re: If you could hunt 1 day wi...Last post by Happy - Today at 08:10:14 PMQuote from: Happy on February 19, 2026, 07:29:00 PMMy grandad.I feel like I have to explain that one a little. My grandad is still alive but at 94 years old he doesn't hunt anymore. He was the only consistent father figure I had in my life and somehow I inherited his love for hunting. He wasn't a turkey hunter but he killed a few here and there. Back when my grandma was going downhill fast, my wife and I went over to give him a break. We had a turkey hunt that went beautifully. I managed to call a gobbler and hen in from just barely audible distance to 20 yards and we got the show. My grandad was carrying his dad's 870 from the 1950s. Things didn't work out for my grandad due to bad eyesight and hearing and the gobbler smelled a rat after a few and was making a hasty retreat when I pulled my gun up and killed it. That was a pretty special hunt though and to this day is the biggest gobbler I have killed in this area. Fast forward some years and my grandad called me to his house to give me that same gun he carried on that hunt and asked me to try and kill one with it. I took it on a few hunts and had some close calls but no luck. It had an effective range of about 30 yards with the high brass 2 3/4" shells it was chambered for. On about attempt #4 it all came together. I managed to kill a pretty nice tom. I had my grandads box call and a wingbone and some military fatigues to keep it more time appropriate. The only thing that would have made it better was if he was within me. Since I was within a short drive of his house I did get to drive over, show him the gobbler, give him the gun back and visit for a few hours. I owe that man a lot and I woukd love to have another hunt, even if we just sat under a tree and chatted. ![]() #3
