Title: A Stribling and a Turpin headed out.
Post by: Jake St. John on March 13, 2014, 12:43:07 PM
On the left is a Ribbon Mahogany over Chickasaw Co., Ms. Black Walnut, in a Stribling style box going to Georgia and right, a Turpin Short box in Ribbon Mahogany over Whiskey Island, Ms. Black Walnut going to Wisconsin. ----- A recent heart stint will keep me from making opening weekend this Sat., but calls like these are fun to finish up.

To fine calls that like the pied piper will lead birds to their demise. I miss seeing the top hat on the Turpin.

Thanks for all the well wishes.  Another week to my 2 week check, and If I can't pull the trigger, I've got some young guns recruited that have an itchy trigger finger.  Weather has not been good for this opening weekend, with a few kills up and down the river on 2 year olds.

I am going to thank Mr. E for this wonderful Turpin short box that I received today. The call is all I had hoped it would be. Old school turpin caller from an Ole Turkey Man. Mr. E gave special attention to this call and it shows. There are several turkeys in the call and I appreciated the three page instructional that Mr. E sent with. It helped me better understand turpin boxes. The Jake and or Gobbler yelps will drive the Bad Boys crazy. The Hen yelps not just roll over they yawk, yawk, yawk just as I had hoped.  Thank You again Mr. E for this wonderful caller that I will be thrilled to carry into the turkey woods.
