Another Old Fence Post Victim
« on: April 27, 2012, 02:48:23 PM »
Allen Ramsey used this old Eminence fence post call made many years ago by Earl Banks to take this old bird. The first year Allen used this call was in 1968. 44 years later it's still the go to call. This bird weighed 24 lbs and had an 11 1/2" beard with 1 1/4" and  1 1/2" spurs.

Some folks say these old calls are "nice folk art" This old caller is the "death of many"

That's a good bird. Allen has killed a lot of turkeys with that call.
