Title: East of the Slash Special
Post by: Jake St. John on November 28, 2010, 07:56:38 PM
Here is a classic East of the Slash Special that I just finished for my son Kirk.  He gave me the walnut beam that the box came from a couple of Christmas's ago.  Walked in Christmas AM and there was a 12 ft. walnut beam under the tree.  The mahogany lid is from a good friend of mine's front door.  When you make one for your son, you have a lot of fun just making the call.  Sometimes just going back a tried and true combination will give you that classic killer combination.  This one has it.

Rickey, I turned 4 boxes in this group and yours is one.  The box is finished and just need to turn the paddle.  It will be a Mahogany one and look very similiar to this call.  Send you a picture when it is done.

I decided to enter this one at the Nationals.  Talked it over with my son, and said I would buy it back if it was in the running.   It has a one of a kind gobbler yelp on the left and a yelp on the right that goes into a soft rasp that will put one in the death trot.  My son and daughter gave me a trip this year and my son and I are planning on having a good time.  Hope to see you there.  I want have any calls in a bag or a booth, all of mine are going out to hunters on my list.  Thanks    ;)
