Good old Butternut
« on: February 05, 2010, 10:38:23 PM »
Here is another Butternut/Walnut combo I finished up today, she will have to cure for a few days, but she is really happy with this Walnut. The Walnut is from Civil War era barn, sent to me by my buddy Larry Gressor, he is a wood nut like me,lol, and if you know Larry, nuff said!  ROTFLMBO Larry is a great friend, and a riot to talk with, would love to go turkey or duck hunting with him!
Thanks for looking,  Dave

Great looking call Dave.  Butternut/ Walnut is always a good combo.

Thanks for for kind words! The butternut tree was cut in Addison County, Vermont, and has made some nice calls, maybe it was a roost tree!  *bannana*
Butternut in my opinion,if it is a good piece, makes some of the nicest calls, it works well with a number of different paddles. It can also be inconsistent from one piece to another.
