Title: Sneak preview of my grandson's calls. With Cooper's Finished Call
Post by: Jake St. John on May 01, 2014, 06:49:08 PM
I have been saving these two blanks for a couple of special Turpin calls for my grandsons, Cooper and Will.  On the left is a Mahogany crotch feather piece that I have carved out.  Compliments of the Mahogany man.  Loved seeing this piece in Nashville.  On the right is a crotch walnut piece that I cut myself from a tree on the banks of Lake Jackson.  It is from the New Farm at Chatham, Ms. and I cut it a couple of years ago.

Jeff, that top piece is looking good.  You have my address and your name is up, so send it on my friend.  On the walnut crotch box for grandson Cooper, I found a crotch piece from Tom Crook that I will be making the paddle.  First Crotch on Crotch for me.  It should be a real looker  *peep*.
