I wanted to post this call I received about a month ago from Mr Watkins. It's Bloodwood over Beech. I read back in Spring that a few guys were liking the sound of this combo and now I know why. One more combo to consider from Mr Watkins!

That's a sweet looking call , and I have no doubt it sounds as good as it looks. Congrats

Thats one of my favorite combos from him. I have 8 of his box calls and every one of them is pure turkey. One of my favorite box call builders.

Very nice!  I am on his list for two or three more, and this combo will be one of them for sure.

Great caller, Mr Watkins has a 'thing'for bloodwood lids and paddles. He gets the sweetest sounds from them w/ many different combos. Again great lookin call. Must sound sweet !!!

Awesome call. There is a Marlin Bloodwood over Apple on Facebook that is one of the best sounding short boxes I have heard.

There's just something about a Watkins box that rings my bell. Very nice.

Is the bloodwood/apple the one Herman has posted on Marlin's page Mr. Rickey? If so I fully agree with you! That one is incredibly good as I'm sure yours is as well Will!

The call I saw was on Don Watkins page. It sounds great.

Your spot on about the bloodwood. I sent him some wormy butternut a few years ago and asked for a matched pair with whatever wood he recommended. Mr Watkins said bloodwood and I can honestly say the short box has the best mature hen sound out of all of mine.

ALll his box call combos sound great. Out of several I own from him , my Ipe over chestnut is beyond believable.
