Title: How do you know when you have it bad?
Post by: Porter on August 24, 2009, 10:04:00 PM: Maybe this?? ROTFLMBO ROTFLMBO

84 calls in this pic. I think I might have misplaced a couple of calls in my room, but I know for sure I've bought 85 calls and gave one to a friend.

October 07 Al and I started working together. Never would have pictured becoming such friends. On that matter, I cannot leave ole Daryl out of it either. I know I do not have that many calls from him, but I have a drawer full of Pot calls and working on adding some more from him too! I call them my 1-2 punch!!!

Thanks guys!

P.S. In no order, 4 of my top 5 calls are in the front row :) I'm not saying which one is #1 *peep*

I think 35 is much more manageable than 84 ROTFLMBO

I kind of see a trend... osage, purpleheart and walnut. Have a couple of cherry ones too. Al's yet to top my favorite call from him though... Although that Osage one is pretty close!!!

I figured I'd post my top 5...

1. Alaskan Yellow Cedar/Purpleheart (bet that fooled some of you ROTFLMBO)
2. All Walnut... dude that call sings!
3. All Osage... Osage is a deeper call and if it was just a slight higher, it might be in 2nd. The more I play it the more I love it!
4. Well this honor would be the Polish Hen Persimmon/Walnut... it rode in 2nd for a long long time!
5. Willow/Walnut.... wow I love that call!

Post by: rutnstrutcalls on August 28, 2009, 03:33:35 PM: That looks like a great bunch of calls! That is all you have 84? I won't even tell you how many Turkey Calls I have! I never realized how many you can accumulate in 10 years! I may post them up for everyone to see!

Those 84 are all from SS boys... I need to pull all mine out, but I'd be pushing 200's pretty easy I think. If I keep at this pace, in 10 years... I'll need a house just for my collection ROTFLMBO

I only have 2 or 3 Calls from Al and Josh at present, in total I have somewhere north of 500 Turkey Calls.
