this is a quiz, ill be doing these for the next couple months..how do you condition a slate, crystal, glass or a frictionite and a aluminumnum pot calls??plus the one everyone wants is the copper over slate ?? i believe each call should be condition differently
2.) crookedeye - 03/24/2019

LOL ...

I've only had two aluminum calls --one box and one pot---and the box sounded like shit. It was one of the first ones to come out, in graphite and acrylic, so maybe they've gotten better. LOL ...I conditioned it by rubbing it with river rock ...At least I assume it got rubbed by river rock after I chunked it into the Bullpasture River. I was scouting in anticipation for some of you knuckleheads coming to hunt forest chickens, deer and bear in the big woods for the Blue-Gray Bow Hunt and things weren't going so well ---- The turkeys weren't responding, and neither were any of you ... LOL

If you and I ever hunt together, I'll show you a trick where you rub some cooking oil or BBQ/brats/hamburger grease on your slates ... Don't try it til I get out there, though ...

I just scratch up my aluminum pot with sandpaper.

I use a Dobie on slate calls and a stone or sandpaper on glass and crystal. Sandpaper will work on slate calls, too, but I try not to use sandpaper on slate for fear of taking off too much from a favorite call.

The Democrats have said a lot of stupid stuff since at least the mid 1800's ...

No.

We fought on Hill 67 so we could take it, give it up, and then take it again a few months later.

Also, so we could get inexpensive shirts and camo hunting gear ...

On a related note, for anyone who has an Amazon Video account I recommend [I]Thud Pilots[/I]. It's a good documentary on the F-105 and the pilots who flew them over Vietnam.

Did you ever try putting out the funky chicken decoy? I nos you were high on it last year because it was something Michael Waddell shilled.

The pack horses were the deal breaker.

They say you're supposed to put a tooth pick in between the reeds of your mouth call. I never do, I just throw them in the container and hope for the best.

[QUOTE=luv2bowhunt;57980]The pack horses were the deal breaker.[/QUOTE]


I think the camping and sleeping outdoors thing was the deal-breaker for you, way before the pack horses ... LOL


i do have some good bed-and-breakfast options for Your Highness if this ever comes up again ... :bk:
24.) luv2bowhunt - 03/27/2019
Bob Peck and I had it figured out. I was going to stay at his place and we'd hook up with you in the morning. No sense crouching in the bushes for a deuce when Bob has a palace 15 minutes away. Hunt smarter, not harder.

LOL ... This is fake news... My recollection is that Bob was radio-silent on this whole thing from the get-go .... Plus it's closer to an hour to his palace 'cuz of all the hollers and sech ...
