Title: Been turning bear calls this week. Here is a outstanding one.
Post by: bearmanric on March 19, 2016, 12:13:30 PM: Black ash Burl stabilized by me. Very very expensive. Turns into a killer call for bears. Later working on day old fawn sounds this week. Really like the fawn sounds was great last year. Rick

Post by: bearmanric on March 21, 2016, 07:52:09 PM: Fawn and Raspy distress works great. This year I will be walking some grassy roads. When I can see well enough I will do fawn distress. Rick

Those are beautiful. I just got a fawn distress from him made out of birdseye maple that's pretty great too!

Post by: Machias on March 31, 2016, 08:32:38 PM: My 2 cents, calling is very effective for bears anytime of the year, but particularly effective in the spring during calving and fawning season.

How do you keep your reeds from sticking? Whenever I call after 20 minutes or so my call gets gummed up

Post by: bearmanric on April 03, 2016, 11:19:34 PM: I tune them for bear calling to get them raspy. Years ago I also learned from slydog Richard Gipson about flipping up the Reed to don't freeze up as much also. Have great luck with my closed reeds. Rick
