MA Commerative State Turkey Calls - Sold Out

Custom - Dick Kirby Boat Paddle – Mass. State Chapter 1st Commemorative Box
Only 25 calls were made - All have been sold.
BUT the State will be selling call #1 on Ebay soon!

FOR SALE:  Massachusetts State Chapter-NWTF Limited Edition Boat Paddle,  circa 2005.

This call is a certified "Original Work of Art" by master call-maker and turkey hunting legend Dick Kirby. The call was crafted on March 3, 2005 and is number #01 of only #25 made. 

These box calls were commissioned by the Massachusetts State Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation and this box is the last one available for purchase. It is accompanied with a signed certificate of authenticity by Dick Kirby and will undoubtedly increase in value as the year's progress forward.

 

Unfortunately Dick Kirby passed away in 2009. So to be able to purchase a call he built, especially as rare as this one, will soon become a thing of the past. His legendary career in the wild turkey hunting world both as a hunter and a call-maker will truly stand the test of time. The Massachusetts State Chapter-NWTF is extremely proud to be able to offer this piece to the turkey hunting community. It is a call that could bring countless hours of enjoyment to the hunter. And if given the proper care will lend itself as a family heirloom to be passed from generation to generation, keeping alive and inspiring anew the cherished call of the wild turkey and the challenge of the hunt.

 

Bidding will start at $175.00.  A big THANK YOU and BEST OF LUCK to all who bid from the Massachusetts State Chapter, NWTF. Ebay Link to this auction coming soon.
