Title: Red Flame Box Elder out the door...
Post by: longbeard48 on December 19, 2011, 11:04:03 PM
It's a busy time here in the swamps of Mississippi, but I just had to take the time to show this one off!  I was contacted by my neighbors on the other end of Chicken Slough this week.  They asked if I could come up with a special Mississippi Scratch Box as a Christmas gift for a friend of theirs who is a turkey hunting fanatic.  The beautiful Red Flame Box Elder wood is from my dwindling stash which was given to me by my friend, Randy, back in the summer.  I rate box elder right up there with Alaskan Yellow Cedar for that crystal clear sound that comes as close to the voice of a turkey hen as you can get.  I was able to match it to a box elder striker, also.  I've built a good number of Christmas gift calls this year, and I feel like they will be the downfall of many a wily longbeard. Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone, tonight!
Tom
