Couple calls for St. Jude.

Postby swamprooter » Mon Apr 08, 2013 8:57 am

A bowhunting site i frequent a lot ,raises over $100,000 each year for St. jude. Various members donate hunts and stuff for an online auction every memorial day. I donated several calls, archery BH and sorts to go with a turkey hunt at my buddies farm in NC. I have to go overseas and cant make it but but i surprised him with a cypress longbox for made from a block of cypress he gave me years ago. The mineral streak Poplar call is the longbox i donated to the "lucky" winner of the raffle. Just had time to finish the holsters. Tried a light brown antique on one.. it's growing on me... crafts are fun when the birds wont gobble!

Those are some fine looking calls.

I find that interesting about the St. Jude taking money from the bowhunting site. The Yazoo Bowhunters had a shoot to raise some money 2 years ago we were going to send it to St. Jude but they said no thanks. We sent it to Blair E Batson instead, they were happy to have it.
