Title: #4 Snakewood from Marlin
Post by: hunter22 on August 11, 2013, 01:11:59 PM

After seeing the two recent box calls that Jeff posted he had gotten from Marlin Watkins, I knew I was hooked. I contacted Marlin and he had a couple Snakewood/wormy Butternut calls he was slowly tuning but was about finished. I told him to pick me one out and send it on down to Arkansas. I got this beauty in the mail late last week. Definitely two of my favorite woods in one package. She is also a player with the rasp I love in a box call.
