Louisiana call makers

[ronbeaux]

Mrs RB and I attended the www.lacalls.org annual metting in Jena Louisiana. Holy smokes! 

Check out these game calls:

This guy turned down $7000.00 for this 1890's era call by J.T. Beckhart. One of his calls sold for almost $100,000.00!!



Here are some hand carved duck calls. One belongs to President Bush. On loan for the show



Mine is the ugly one in the working duck call catagory



Some turkey yelpers



Some carved working calls



Got lots more pics and the guys coached me on tone boards. What a great day!

The price of a handcrafted call..... i think there is better things to buy for that money
