Title: For a Proud Kentucky Dad!
Post by: fargobox on January 06, 2014, 06:49:05 PM
Here is a Persimmon (man I love this wood for lids!!) over Black Cherry built as a gift for a father to his son who took his 1st gobbler last season.  I asked Dad if he was present on the hunt, "yes" he said, but his proudest moment came when the son then hunted the next day alone, but saw nor heard anything, not discouraged he hunted the day after that and took his 2nd longbeard by himself.  I do believe we have to makings of a new turkey thug in Kentucky--way to show him the way dad!!

Yet another heirloom to represent something very special to a hunter- made by a very talented maker that's a hunter also-
Man, it just doesn't get any better than that
Congrats to the owner and Scott... Another call representing so much to the owners

Scott, I like the scenes you have burned on that call.  Always liked the double bearded gobbler and the roosted one.  Great work as always! *bowing*

I can only imagine how completely thrilled that boy is going to be when he gets that box from his dad...and how thrilled dad will be to give it to him. Gift of a lifetime for both of them.

Scott, I really like that box.  I use persimmon for lids quite a bit.  With walnut it makes a nasty old raspy hen.  My pattern box for my Turpins is a Walnut with a persimmon lid that is actually my nephews call.  Made it a good number of years ago and it has a few notches on it.   Has the nastiest two old hens you ever heard.  I'll have it in Nashville and bring you some old southern boys swamp persimmon for your calls.

Beautiful work my friend. That gobbler looks like he is hot to trot for a sweet hen . Sure to help keep a memory alive for that hunter.
