A Gator for Mr. Blue Smoke McKamey
« on: November 11, 2011, 09:59:19 AM »
Jeff, You can send your blue smoke boys on down to pick this one up.  It is just about as close as it is going to get.  This gator is only my second with a butternut box.  The butternut was harvested on Indian Creek in the Blue Creek watershed of Kanawaha County, WV. by my friend L.T. Pack (Firedup on here).  The Classic snakebelly cherry paddle was part of a trade with Mr. Jimmy Flautt in Greenwood, Ms. , 5 cherry boards for 3 doz. diving duck decoys.

This one should compliment the cuttin call that you have.  Has a great gobbler yelp left, screaming hen right and a super gobble.  Does all the soft calls.  I will send you a special surprise call next to complete our trade.  They  have been fun to make for you.

John


 


Yours is the one on the right.  Shows the snake making it's curve from top to bottom of the paddle.  Classic snakebelly pattern.

Oh --WOW  :o :o
A Gator in Butternut  *bannana* *cheers*
I am sure that is going to be a complement to the walnut I already have John. The call looks great and I cant wait to hear what ya described my friend. I am sure the call is destined to roll a few. Thanks for the opportunity to get the second and thanks LT for the wood for John to use. I am excited about this one!!!

Limbhanger, I was looking at a piece in the corner where I have it stacked this AM when I was final tuning Jeff's call.  There was good un just looking at me.  There are still some good ones left in the pile.  I have a pretty one that I am working on now that is more of the solid pattern.   Both will crawl when you tilt them in the light.  They make a good looking and sounding call with either the butternut or walnut.
