Title: New Lanyard
Post by: Silverspur on March 27, 2013, 03:18:37 PM: I came home from work on Monday to find a package arrived in the mail. I opened it up and it was this sharp looking lanyard made by Brian Watts (AKA NX95240). Brian has made various turkey calls over the years and has taken his talent to a new level in hand making these lanyards. This has special meaning to me, since I know what Brian has gone through with the recent passing of his Dad. To make this during his time of grief was beyond my belief. Brian, I will wear this in the turkey woods, in honor and memory of your Dad. I can't thank you enough! I hope everyone enjoys this as much as I do. You have a lot of talent my friend!
