Monster Osage Orange
« on: April 20, 2010, 12:03:06 PM »




Today I came home from trout fishing and found a package from Matt McLain, and it was full of turkey. *gobble*
The trumpet is made from a Monster Osage orange tree that was at least 147 years old..and the base of the tree is the size of a small car...
The Pot call is a make of persimmon,with slate surface and also a monster striker...

Thanks for looking
Alan...

Congratulations on a Nice set of calls from Matt McLain! Matt is certainly making some good looking and All Turkey sounding calls to take hunting. I've got just a few of his turkey calls and they speak Turkeybird language very well.
