Author Topic: A couple of sweet Antler Calls Doug Knows what it's all about Member # 31 posted March 20, 2003 03:33 PM                   A member of Huntmasters sent me a few antler calls. The pictures don't do the craftsmanship justice. These are beautiful handmade calls and definitely a step above anything in my calling bag. Thank-you Dic.

Dic made Tyler and me some of those. Ours are prettier and sound better than yours. Dic likes us more.

I started makeing my own calls 15 years ago by robin parts from other mass produced calls and building the bodies from antler. It took a long time to learn how to tune them to the antler, they have to flow together to make a flowing tone. I like a extra Rrrraspy jack and none of the mass produced calls will do that without modifacation. I thought if I have to modify all of them why not just make my own. Now all of my calls are tested before they go out. Every call I build either calls coyotes or it is reworked and tested again. If they don't work they don't go out.I have some that sound good to me but have never called a coyote"YET" sooner or later. Rich, never calls me anymore, I'm feeling a little left out see, Rich hunts with PUP and W@W and talks about it, just to rub it in and make me feel bad. I'm just not worthy Thanks again Doug, Leonard and Rich Dic [ March 20, 2003, 08:37 PM: Message edited by: 20t-n-t ] -------------------- Teach a kid to hunt and fish and feed them for a lifetime......

Because I don't have one of Dic's antler calls. -------------------- Make them pay for the wind.

I guess I will have to switch to crow shooting. Don't think there will be a Coyote left in these parts in site of two Moons. -------------------- Make them pay for the wind.

I still have to use my open reed howler. Rich don't like me like he likes you and pup and W@W POOOOOR Dic, all camo'ed up and no howler to blow. Realy Rich has been so busy that he can't get caught up, hell we never get to talk anymore. BTW I think I got my computer up and I'm not sure but I think I will be able to load those programs soon. Also glad you like the calls. Slydog -------------------- Teach a kid to hunt and fish and feed them for a lifetime...... Posts: 245 | From: Boise Idaho USA | Registered: Jan 2003  |  IP: Logged
