I see a few that need to comment. I am not building these for any other reason, than Passion for the GAME. That is it. If you want a Hunting call, that will KILL TURKEYS, this Call will do it, all day, everyday. This to me is a Tool, for Killing Turkeys, and that is it. I will not enter contest's, I could give a darn. I want them in the field, Killing Birds. There are a LOT of Great call makers out there, making  Great calls. All, will kill birds. This, is One of them, a Very good, Hunting call. If you run one, it will be on your neck come season. Plenty of Great trumpet builders, I am not comparing these to any others, it is just a Hunting call, and a darn good one. I have had my fill of the Politics in this Game, Just want to build calls and have them hunted with success, these will do just that. I no longer care what is said, I truly do not. Just want to build calls, and Turkey hunt. Have a great day, hope Ya'll like her.


 Calm down Spur....... :-\  It will be OK.....I'm commenting because this post is to funny not too.... ROTFLMBO.    As usual you start out with your self praising BS... You did buy the digital voice recorder you been swearing to buy to record your calls, but the only thing you recorded was someome else's box call.......... Get over yourself, and stop whinning....... ;D

Spur I think you are going down the right path!  I need to look at it for awhile to say if I really like the hump or not, but as long as it plays...  that's all I would carry about.

Hopefully this will stop a lot of your drama on your callers!

Jeff loose the hump!!! As far as the drama go's there is only so much you can do with the looks of a trumpet. I myself like nice clean lines!!! I know that this can be hard to achieve without people saying that your are copying anothers design. There is one guy that says all trumpets are copy's of his!! *wha*
