This is some African wood but I don't know exactly what it is. It looks like walnut to me but 10 times harder. I used Aluminum/glass. The sound is certainly there. You could call the tom in and then throw this call at him and it will kill him.  ROTFLMBO

The striker is some laminate that I turned as well. I make them different but this design is what I stick with. Unless it is requested this is how I make them.

To give you an idea how hard this is...... If I threw this at my wall in the house, I would be patching a hole. I had to sharpen my tools 4 times before I got done with it. It took a while to.

Looks like Shedua (sp). One of the hardest woods around. I have several box calls made from it.

Major league baseball needs to use this stuff as baseball bats....... They would never break this stuff. Might have to make the fields 600ft but no broken bats.  Thanks for all your kind words.

I think I know what it is....... It called African Wood Brick.  *aah*  Thanks for all the great feedback guys. Thanks Jim for purchasing it.

I think it is African Shedua all joking aside.

... and it's a very good soundin' pot caller to boot - great break to the yelp, & can be played either clear or raspy pendin' the amount of striker pressure applied - this caller can kill turkey birds ... RkLu RkLu
