Turkey calls up for auction at the UBM Festival

#1 Post by dhaverstick »

I wanted to show off these beautiful calls up for auction at the United Bowhunters of Missouri Festival next weekend (2/10-2/12) in Springfield, MO. The cedar box call was made by Charlie Miller and the cedar pot call (ceramic over slate) was made by Vince Crawford. The strikers are purpleheart and Rutland Ply Dymondwood. I made the holsters for both calls. The frames of the holsters are vegetable-tanned cowhide and I covered the frames in ostrich leather. The trim is deer and I sewed everything up with artificial sinew.

A big THANK YOU to both these craftsmen for helping me out with these auction items!

Come join us next weekend for a good time.

Darren

Do you know what kinds of woods the pot and strikers are from? What is the pots calling surface material?

I love how you made such beautiful and well matched pouches.
The element of surprise can never be replaced by persistence.
