Little Creek Calls

What is his recipe for the BBQ sauce? It looks and sounds great. We juiced some a few weeks ago and I still have some frozen juice in the freezer.

Sean I will take them.

I have a couple family members with hunts starting Friday. Both already have antelope mounts on the wall. How much are you wanting to spend on a cape and I will see if they are interested in selling? FYI Your PM inbox must be full it wouldn't let me send to you.

Seems like I remember hearing that years ago there were reintroduced Merriam's turkey in 29 and 31 but cant remember where I heard it.

In my opinion it is a female cutthroat. Your other picture is of a male cutthroat and that is the reason it is more colorful and has a bigger mouth.

We used Lacorti's in Fredonia a few years back for meat processing and were really happy with his work. My Dad will use him again for his 13A antelope this year.

The White Mountain Apache Tribe are also doing closures. Basically any lake off the paved road very far are closed. http://wmatoutdoors.org/wp_view.html?pageid=13

Brown and brook Trout spawn in the fall and rainbows, cutthroat and Apache trout spawn in the spring.

Turkey usually have 18 tail feathers unless they have broken or lost one. If they loose or break one they will grow another one back. Each feather is a little different depending on where it is located in the fan. All of the feathers I have are numbered so I can put the fan back together in the correct order. I have several Rio fans that I killed but haven't put back together. Post or send me a picture of the missing feathers so I know what feathers you need.

I have lots of Rio tail feathers. I cant help out with the neck feathers, no reason to pull them and bring them home.

I was there and had a great time. Saw and talked to lots of friends. Met and made several new friends. Its always fun to watch the videos from the projects and camps that the money spent helps fund. Thanks to all the volunteers who made it possible.

I will be doing a turkey hunting and turkey calling seminar again this spring. There will be general turkey hunting tips and strategies. There will also be breakout trainings with hands on call use training. This year I will be a doing a box call training. There will also be a pot call training (slate, aluminum, copper, glass and crystal). All calls for the training will be supplied by me. Calls will be available for purchase after the training. There will also be a question and answer time so if you have any questions or are looking for help in a particular unit there will be several experienced turkey hunters willing to help. This seminar will be free of charge with no registration required, just show up the day of the seminar. I look forward to teaching these seminars each year and helping others improve their turkey hunting and calling skills. I hope to meet some of you there. Thursday April 12th 2017, 6:00PM – 8PM at the Mesa, Arizona Sportsman’s Warehouse

Or pinery canyon or rucker lake or both turkey creeks east and west sides or pretty much anywhere and you can find birds in 29. Good luck to both you and your daughter.

I am looking forward to seeing some of you tonight. Should be fun.

See if he can put you on a spring turkey while you are there. The season runs the month of march, you have until the end of the week. Cant wait to read your report on your deer hunt.

Got my first Oceola Turkey this morning in Florida. 10" beard 1 1/8" Spurs 21 pounds.

My calling seminar is scheduled for thursday April 12th at Sportsman's Warehouse in Mesa. As far as a first pot call goes I would probably recommend starting with a slate call. Easiest to use and learn on.

Here is the call I am just finishing up. It has taken me over 8 years to fully complete. It is third call I ever made and my earliest call that I have sold. I am glad to finally be finishing this call. it's a special to me and a one of a kind. It will come with both strikers.

For this banquet I decided to finish up and donate a piece of my call making history. When I first got started making calls I decided to start with slate pot calls. The first didn't really work out all that well. The second turned out to be a good working call that I still use on occasion. Both calls I still own and don't plan on selling. The third was a different type of wood and took a couple trys to get a cut out and roughly turned call on the lathe. I stopped before I messed it up to bad with the idea of coming back to finish when I was a little more experienced. I never planned on selling it but finishing it for myself. When sitting down to start a call for this my home chapter banquet I saw the unfinished call on my shelf and thought I would give someone a chance to purchase a peice of my call making history. It will be my earliest call that I have sold and the only call from this type of wood. I will post more details and pictures as I get it finished up this week. Hope to see some of you at the banquet.

We had a great time. I am glad we were able to make it.

Here are a couple pictures of of the calls I am donating for the banquet tomorrow night. They are a copper calling surface in a Pecan pot and a crystal calling surface in a Carob pot. I am excited to be attending tomorrow night. It will be my first time at the northern Arizona chapter banquet. Hope to meet some new Coues Whitetail members there.

Just finished up a couple calls for the national call making contest. First one is copper calling surface in a Carob wood pot. The second is aluminum calling surface in a Pecan wood pot.

I will be there with my wife and two boys. Should be a fun night.

Does anyone else have found memories of a call similar to this but with white tape instead of brown? I just received some new latex in the mail today and blue being one of the new colors I had to put one together.
