A Whittenberg masterpiece
« on: March 17, 2010, 11:53:09 AM »
Got back this morning and had a surprise at my office. Its a Sitka longbox with a Cedar lid from Dan Whittenberg.
   Man--let me tell ya---not only is this thing a beauty, but she will flat out sing too. It came with a real nice call piuch too. This is one great call and it also soooo easy just to look at.
I hear its alot better than the one Rickey got also !!! *bowing*
Rickey, if your is half the call mine is -I know you happy too !!! *bannana* *bannana*
The pictures were taken in my office---sorry Dan---but I just had to share them as soon as I could with everyone!!

Jeff,

You figured out those safety pins yet???

Here's mine. Notice mine is a little different. This is his straight Cost style. Yours is a Cost style but the handle is Dan's design with the fan painting and finger grooves. My first call from him is like yours. I was told this design kills more turkeys.

Well his personal Sitka in His style called in 66 kills (one call) to the guns last year. As a hunter and a guide/caller.

Jeff,

I agree with you, both styles are simply outstanding. I think he makes the two different types so he can lure you back in for " just one more."
