New Inlay Options Available.

I've been working on this for quite some time and frankly, I'm pretty proud of the result.

I can now offer inlays in the call in different colors in addition to different metals. The call pictured includes Red, White and Blue inlays sandwiched in between brass inlays. These set off the Claro Walnut endcaps.

This is an absolutely gorgeous call in person and is a real runner! I hope the new owner really loves it! (This call is sold, but I can make one like it for you!)

April Trade Call

Made this nice lookin call for a callmaking buddy in Arkansas as part of the recent trade run.

I hope he loves it.

The New Classic

I've been working on this design in my head for quite some time. It is a little something old, and a little something new. It takes some design cues from some of the callmakers of old, but most specifically, my great uncle, Chick Majors.

My goal in designing this call was to take some of what made the calls of the 50's and 60's great and then take some of what I've learned in the past 30 years that makes modern calls great, put them all into the mix to make an awesome call that has a mix of both.

I've succeeded in doing so. I have a call now with the character of the calls of the 50's and 60's, but with the volume and control of a modern call. It is a classic Arkansas style call and it sounds that way. I shot birds over the prototypes this past season and that is what matters most!
