This is the second howler I made. I'll be keeping this one for myself. It's about 12 in long and a little less elaborate than the flamed one I made. Very time consuming though. Hope the pics turn out okay.

I agree with all of the above comments. That call is very, very nice looking. But can you call ducks with it???? ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

It looks great Brad. And I'll admit that I couldn't even begin to build something that nice, but I still have one question. When you hang it around your neck doesn't it bang your knees when your walking, that thing is huge!! LOL!

I have this image of Loco borrowing it, making a stand in his ghillie suit, spraining his wrist as he snags it in the strips, while attempting to do a 180º on nine charging coyotes. In other words....It looks dangerous, in the wrong hands. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Just kidding. Very nice work and an imaginative design.
Good hunting. LB

This thing is big and loud, I suppose how I carry it remains to be seen. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) I'll bet it'll call in ducks but not in my hands LOL! It really sounds and works as good as it looks. The case may be that I'm a better mechanic than driver, but that's alright, I have almost as much fun making these things as I do calling in the targets. Can't wait to get out and use it. I appreciate all the comments!

Wow, Brad, that's a dandy. I've got several horns from these little longhorns we grow around here, but haven't taken the sitdown time to polish one up and see what I can make with it. That thing's big enough that you might wanna consider an axle and wheels!!!
I wanna hear what you say when you howl one up with it. there's a great and undescribable sense of satisfation that comes from duping a coyote with something you made yourself. You guys that haven't ventured into making your own call really need to try it.
Again, beautiful howler.
