Very impressive crazyvan. Wish I had the talent and tools to make calls. What wood did you use for the striker ? I just got two custom calls made by Wendell Rye, Lightsout calls, 1 in Zebrawood /glass and the other walnut/slate. That zebrawood grows on you. Very unique. Think I will get a becote wood call next. Hope you call in a big un with your new call.
