Yesterday, I received what I consider to be one of the coolest call orders ever. A young man who has cut the grass and done some gardening for my mom and dad for several years is a very avid hunter, deer and turkey. We have never met, but when my mom was alive she showed him several pictures of my calls, which would have been about 8 months ago. I sent him a few more pics and an email but never heard back from him...until yesterday.
He told me that he was getting married this August 27th and talked alot about my mom and how proud she was of me...thanks mom!
He said he would like to get some of my calls. "Some" I said, "Yeah" he said..."I had this idea a while back that instead of giving all my buddies in the wedding party some stupid gift they'll never pick up again I would like to give them each a custom box call". Wow that sounds cool I thought, a very original idea and an awesome gift...wish I was in the wedding
"So tell me how many buddies are in the wedding?"..."a 9" '9...did you say 9!!!" "yep, 9" "So can you have them built for the wedding?" "Ah... shis shis shis shis...sure man!!!! you bet!
how in the world am I gonna get them done with all the others coming in the door???
"Well how about the cost?" "Cost, that don't matter," he said, "I'm gonna do it no matter what the cost--this will be the best gift ever and something they'll remember for the rest of their lives"--crap you got that right!!!
We'll safe to say I gotta run guys and fire up the shop. Scott
