This is a decorative set of Turkey Calls that I made and entered in the 2011 NWTF Grand National Turkey Callmaking Competition last week. The set won First Place for Matched Set and the Best of Class award. Andy Cobb Matched set of calls made from African woods and the horns of various African ringed horn antelope. The calls are made using figured Black Limba, Gaboon Ebony, Antelope horn, Brass, and Elephant Ivory. The set consists of a Limba double side box call, a single side Blesbuck horn box call, a Springbok horn scratchbox call, a Gemsbok horn owl hooter, a Springbok horn crow call, and a Blesbuck horn chalkbox. The set also includes a pair of Impala horn trumpet calls; one with a carved Ivory wingbone mouthpiece and the other has a mouthpiece made from a Porcupine Quill with an Ivory tip. The set is housed in a Zebrawood display box featuring Wenge pegs.        -------------------------------------------- National Rifle Association - Life Member National Wild Turkey Federation - Diamond Life Sponsor Pope & Young Club - Associate Member | ||

Andy, those were the most beautiful Turkey calls I have ever seen. I had full intentions of taking those home with me but I had to excuse myself for a few moments and when I returned, they had sold. Someone got a great set that no doubt will be a super investment. Congrats on your win my friend, you deserved it!

Fantastic Andy. Well deserved. You are a renaissance man. You care if I ask what those sold for? Want to come to Nebraska and bust some Merriams with me, Tim Herald, and others? I think there's one spot left. Will J. Parks, III | |||

Guys, the pics Andy posted are excellent, but you would have to see those calls to appreciate the high quality work he put into them. Each piece was a work of true art.
