After seeing Tony Tebbe post that his first custom call he purchased was form Mr. Brad Holzer I got to thinking (I know, that's a stretch /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif), what and who was the first custom call you ever purchased? When I first got back into the sport, I was crusing the net and came across this site and started soaking up info like a sponge. I was very apprehensive about contacting the custom callmakers on the board but finally decided to take the plunge.
I got ahold of Tony Tebbe and comissioned him to make me an antler open reed call. A week or so later Tony did a tutorial on how to make an open reed antler call here on the board:

Lo and behold, the whitetail call in the tutorial showed up at my door step less than a week later. I took the call out the next weekend and called up two fox with it and I was hooked!! Here is a pic of the call and the shotgun I was using during the early days of posting here at PM:
I love looking at my collection of customs, but this one was very special and holds a spot high on my list of cool hunting stuff. Tony got me hooked!
For guys and gals wondering if they should go custom, I highly recomend it. The build up to recieving the call built special to you is really a great feeling. Then when you open that package and start playing a new call it really sinks in that that call is yours . Killer deal all around, and it makes predator hunting just that much more special, I gurantee it /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif!
Now, everybody post your first custom and if you have them, post a pic or two for us all to look at on a Friday to get us to the weekend.
Everybody have a good one and kiss the wife on mothers day for being understanding about a sport that makes alot of noise!!

Don't hesitate to contact any of the callmakers on the board guys and gals, now is the time that we are all chomping at the bit, waiting for fall and the callmakers are ready to outfit you with a custom built just for you!
