NOT Just Another Pot Call

[hunter22]

 I had a guy comment to me the other day that I had posted just another pot call. Well I can assure you this one I got from Bill Lyman, callmakerman, is far from just another pot call. It is a Chestnut pot with a 3 1/4 inch slate playing surface over a glass soundboard. I have short box calls, long box, pot calls, and tree callers made by Bill and I have never run anything made by him that was not pure turkey. This one is also.





Here are some strikers Bill has made. I almost hate to reveal a secret like this. I know how much he loves making these.

Rickey if that one sounds anything like the one I got from Bill last year, you've got one killer sounding call. Congrats on your new call.

Very nice caller and strikers !!

I agree with you Rickey, Bill makes a fine call and it's all turkey.  His strikers are just as good as his pots.  I have about 5 of those strikers, but that yellow heart & glass pot is killer, IMO.  Congrats Rickey!

Great looking call. Can't wait to run that one. I only have one from him but need a couple more. His strikers are among the best.

Rickey glad your pleased with the call and strikers. I hope you can get a little blood on it before it hits the shelf. I also have a new 4 jaw chuck so turning strikers is not the headache it used to be.

Tom,

Here are my short boxes and longbox Bill made. One short box is an all-cedar and the other a cherry over wormy butternut. My son and I doubled on two gobblers that came in to the butternut call a couple years ago. The longbox is red cedar over holly.
