Well I figure since I'm new here and this is the area I'll be hanging out, I'd introduce myself here.. I pretty much only hunt coyotes these days... wife and kids (both girls) wouldn't eat anything I brought home so I figured I wouldn't have to feel bad hunting coyotes. After a couple years of coyote hunting I started making my own equipment.. started with shooting sticks and after progressing to hand calls thought I could make those myself too... after a while it kind of grew into a big hobby, so in my spare time when I'm not hunting the coyotes, I'm making calls for 'em! Hope it's ok to show a couple off?

One of my top of the line... both the barrel and the toneboard are made from Hippo tooth Ivory:





A Desert Ironwood burl barrel with a Hippo Ivory bead and Hippo Ivory toneboard:



This one has a Spalted Hackberry barrel with a Buffalo Horn bead and o-ring fitted Buffalo Horn toneboard.



This has a Chittum burl barrel with an Elk antler bead and an o-ring fitted antler toneboard,



One of my "field grade" calls.. this is a Black Walnut barrel with an antler toneboard.
