Fine looking call!

That mouthpiece looks exactly like one I own. Nice looking figured wood.
Did I ever tell you guys about a stash I had of black walnut? It was way back in the back of the property and my buddy Vic, we worked together at several enterprises, but one day I happened to be nosing around in the back forty and where the hell was my walnut?
Well, I asked Vic, concealing my distress as well as possible and he said; oh yeah I took all that home and burned it in the fireplace! I love him like a brother, but could have choked the shit out of him, except for my exceptional self control.
I don't know if I will eve get over it. <sob>
Good hunting. El Bee

Thanks guys. LB, the mouthpiece used to be common, but discontinued now. I buy them from the original molder and modify them a bit.

That a really pretty call Mark.
Leonard, that story was really funny! I can imagine the guy responding real proud like for have cleaned up the yard, "sure, I k of that would pile, burned like coal; good stuff that black walnut!" LOL way to exercise that self-control.

Yeah, how much does a cord of Black Walnut firewood go for these days ??

Picking at an old scab that won't heal, eh? Vic and I met for breakfast at Norm's just a couple months ago. I happened to mention the walnut. He's a normally bright boy, (for a Marine) but he still doesn't get it. He had a semi-puzzled look on his face and I couldn't figure a way to 'splain him? But, one of these days, I will....I sure hope that was a nice fire?
Good hunting. El Bee
