Rick- Have you written any books yet?

I'd buy that book. If it came with a duck call.

One a duck call would only sweeten the deal. Two my new calls are aluminum dammit. That makes them hunks of metal that make funny duck sounds.

Thanks Rick, you're making me more excited to get it. They sound like good guys to deal with.


There are a lot of good guys in the call business, but I doubt you'll find better than James and Bill. They are, however, a couple of "computer challenged" coonasses, so if you need their help, you'll likely have much better luck by phone than e-mail. Feel free to tell them I said so and blame the call on me.

I only know Albert by reputation and through mutual friends, though they say he's coming to their camp this year and wants to meet, which I'm looking forward to.

He's still making absolutely beautiful calls, though all I've had the chance to try have been double reeds that weren't for me. (I'm a screamer.)

Yeah I've wanted of his calls for a long time just havent gotten around to it yet. Dont know if you've seen one but his " Gator " calls are very unique and all hand carved.
Hope you get the chance to meet him, I bet he'd be very cool to yak with in a blind.

Try selling them, $1 for 1cd or $5 for 4cd's. I bet you get a few takers on the $5 "deal".

I'm using two 16' x 38" cuts for the floor so I only have one seam and it will be overlapped. The rest will be for the live well and raised front deck. So far total cost is at $2,200.

When I was in 7th grade I was dating this 8th grade girl and she gave me a cd with Savage Garden on it! Girls are stupid! That was my last love mix. :lol:

My last "love mix" I received ended with a cotton swab, that felt like the size of a golf ball, crammed right down the 'ol Jim-dog and rounded out with a pack of antibiotics. Bitter sweet really.
