Grand National Decorative Locater call
« on: February 21, 2010, 05:14:05 AM »
Hi Guys, * hi *
Heres a call I carved out of Pennsylvania Basswood. It is a sharpshinned hawk holding a Green rough snake. The only thing you can't see in the picture is the carved spider on the base of the tree.  It has a carved out branch it's sitting on that is removable and you blow thru it to produce a hawk call.  I had around 135 hours on this project.  It finished second behind Mr Constantine.  Thanks for Looking
More pictures to come of other calls I had entered

Greg that is beautiful.  I'm glad you posted that as I didn't have a chance to get a good picture of them!

You have a lot of talent :)
