In response to a friend's comment that the light color of the cypress would spook any incoming gobbler, Neil used a can of black paint to spray a camouflage pattern on this call.  He inscribed it: "Made as a working signature call."  Neil also added "sheep pellets ain't gonna help" a reference to his comment that he used sheep dung to achieve the camouflage effect.  The cypress is from the Kempfer Ranch in Osceola County, Florida, and the walnut is from the Conasauga river area of Tennessee. Circa 1988.
