Custom Elk Calls - Maple Burl
«

I have turned 5 more out of gramps' piece of Maple Burl. This piece was cut thick enough that I turned it parallel with the eyes making for cool vertical figure. I also put a little brown dye into the wood making the figure pop a little better. The calls are finished wuth a deep polyurethane crystal clear finish.
$26 shipped.

Those turned out beautiful. I've been looking at your composites recently. Do you have any green/black or green/charcoal right now?

Alcon,
JPhelps makes a great elk call. Beautiful, small, and easy to use. A welcome addition to my mouth reed call.

I have I think the first call out of this burl... It is amazing to look at, and sounds even better! A true piece of art!

All of these are gone. Thank You for looking. I will be turning up some more of these soon. I like how they look and turn out. Besides Gramps' would be proud that his maple burl is being turned into elk calls.
