When I first introduced myself here I had made mention that I did not have a box call, one of the members here was kind enough to send me this call. I do not want to say who it is because some people like to keep things like this to themselves but though I thanked him privately I also wanted to thank him publicly and if he wishes to name himself that is up to him. I bought a thank you card to send to him but misplaced the box with his address on it. Thanks again.

Here are a few pictures of the call and I have attached a sound file but please be kind to me, I have never used a long box before only a standard sized box call and have not handled one of those since 2001 and it is very clear that I need lots of practice. The call is Brazilian Cherry over Butternut that came from PA and the maker is Russel Beard https://soundcloud.com/user-933394494/long-box.

For sure, I am very grateful. When I can if I see somebody on here in the same kinda situation I will do the same for them.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

noisy box call that seems to sound like a flock of juvenile hens pecking their way through a wheat field

Sir-diealot

Sure is. What I did not say above is when I won the Ninja Hen Box I contacted him and asked him if he would rather I send it back to him or send it on to somebody else or if I could offer him something and he said I could pay him back by getting a bird and posting a picture of it here.

I can't do it this year but next year I think i will buy a call or two and donate them here for the giveaways.

I have some old Feather Flex Decoys that I replaced when I started hunting again 3 years ago and one this month thanks to a friend, does anybody have a use for them? If so contact me and I will send them out. (One needs to be stapled but will work fine after that) 1 hen and 1 jake. They are nothing great, 98-01 era decoys but if somebody can use them they are theirs. I can't send them until the third though as I am on disability and don't get paid to then.

That's an awesome gesture on somebody's part. Good to know there's still good folks around, these days it's easy to forget that.
