My daughter and I stopped by Ricks today to check out his shop and whatnot. I was admireing one of his calls and he said I could have it, he said it was cracked and just couldnt sell it. I looked closely and could barely see the crack with my naked eye. He said he had glued it. My point is Rick is a real stand up guy in my book, I dont think anyone would have ever noticed the crack after the repair, but Rick knew it was there and wouldnt sell it. Thanks Rick :tup: You are a great guy and an even better call maker :chuckle: Markts
-
Yeah he's great. Makes really nice calls. I think I have 5 or 6 myself. Meed to get back over to his place and see what else he has.
-
You guys leave him alone so he can finish my call. ;)
-

Rick, a little follow up to the free calls you sent to my two new hunters.
They both love them. Mom doesnt.... :chuckle:
Rick is a special guy to share his sport with kids.

I'm glad you got all the old ones.....It looks like I got a nice fresh set. I'm almost as bad as Jackelope. I'm not sure how many Rick calls I have. Not enough I guess.... ;)
-
I have at least 3 and I can't wait to get some in the mail soon. :IBCOOL:
-
I need to come over and look at the different types of wood you have for calls. I like that bocote but I know you have some others that are real nice.
-
Hey Rick didnt want to start a new thread but I was wondering if you ever posted pictures of those purple heart calls you were making? I got some money scrounged up and Im ready to order a couple calls from you. I just cant make my mind on what I want yet.

They look great. I really like that third one over. Smooth shape with the beveled end. Looks like it could be made out of billet aluminum.
PM sent.

just finished my best bear call yet. Rick
Can we see it? :chuckle: It is always a highlight when you post the latest calls.
-
Blew on the purpleheart yesterday....GOBBLE GOBBLE, and I heard another one upstream, that hadn't spotted me yet, so I worked in on him and sat and called him across an open meadow. He hung up on the creek and I didn't feel like negotiating it either, so I blew ont eh call to keep him gobbling for fun. I bet if a turkey could get hoarse, he would be. NICE CALL RICK
-
