JW! Where you the one that used to make wingbone calls for the members?
I seem think it was you, I still can't get any noise outta mine, but its awfull purty and makes a good conversation piece.

Yep was me - I made over a 1,000 easy and then the Hobby became a job and I quit.

You need to find the sweet spot on your lips ~ Say did I make that call? My early calls I made do not compare to later yrs. I learned as I made!
One thing you can try is sand the mouth piece a bit. Make sure it has a square end. If that does not do it - then glue (epoxy) the end of the moutpiece shut and redrill with a 1/8" bit. I glue all I made at the end as to me it was just far easier to make them work.
I used this call to get 2 birds to respond last yr. I like wingbones on windy days too.

I am not picky over team name or avatar. Whatever the majority wants is perfectly fine with me. All I want is for the 16th of April to get here so the KY season can get underway. I cannot wait to get out and start hunting!!!

Hey what Part of KY?
I might pass by you on my way to TN as I going to Nashville then going south east of Pulaski, TN.
One route does take through a bit of KY ~ if close maybe stop and I buy coffee!

guys, has anyone tried to e-mail simon?
He's our only no show, but he's also a huge turkey hunter that's part of a hunting video franchise! I'd bet we'd be better off with him than an alternate!
Lets try to get him on board! I'll try to contact him if its not stepping on our captains toes.
