a Watkins trumpet
« on: October 26, 2012, 09:56:12 AM »
Its hard....no its IMPOSSIBLE ...to go to Marlins without coming home with a new call, or two ,or three  *lol* !
This last hunting jaunt found a new trumpet Marlin made and had ready for me to hunt with there. Marlin, Ronnie, and David had to ENDURE my playing the call like a new kid on christmas morn all the way to breakfast and back every morning in the truck---l and let me say ,that truck is a competator,not a TOYOTA  *wha*.
The trumpet draws very easy and tones down down right flawless. The sound in her...well , its a pure hunter let me say. Thanks Marlin fOr the great trumpeT. iTS GOING TO SEE PLENTY OF WOODS TIME.
