Title: Simply an Awesome Set
Post by: hunter22 on August 07, 2012, 08:14:30 PM

I just got this stunning set from Mike Lapp today. The long box and short box are both Canarywood over Butternut, a combo he is well known for in the turkey world. When you hold these calls and play them it is so easy to see why he consistently wins at the Nationals each year. Impeccable woodwork and pure turkey sounds in both the long and short box. I asked Mike to tune these young hen and he nailed both calls. I appreciate Mike’s support and friendship while I was going through some health issues last fall and winter. Thanks again Mike for making me such fine calls.
