First off I have to thank letinmfly for posting his.  I've been pestering Bill ever since for one :)  Yeah I'm a sucker for Osage...  Funny story is, after seeing Lou post his, I pm'd Bill and he kind of said he didn't build Osage calls.  I scratched my head and said...  dang did I pm the wrong person  ROTFLMBO

Being persistent (and probably annoying  *up* ) helped with this acquisition!  You can always get a good feel for a callmaker when you are communicating with them.  Modest is what comes to mind talking to Bill.  I have pm after pm making sure I was happy with the call.  Being told if it's not what I wanted to let him know.  I think Bill didn't like it that much.  Comments of I'm not good with Osage, Osage isn't a good wood... etc...  Needless to say, I think Bill has a very good career building calls with Osage  RkLu

Nothing but 100% turkey stuffed inside this call!  Lou thank you for posting your call and helping me out with this!  Bill you did a great job on this one!  Sorry for taking so long to post a picture of it, but it was spending some time in the woods with me  ;D

That is a great looking call.  As far as therapy is concerned, Porter did go, he was obsessed with butternut and they told him to think of something else to get his mind off of butternut and the end result was Osage. ROTFLMBO
