Jackson, LA --- Teacher, author, and recognized turkey hunting expert, Kenny Morgan, has invented a hand-crafted turkey caller that has impressed hunters with its highly authentic duplication of turkey sounds.

A former champion turkey caller, Morgan has launched a new venture centered around production of the innovative turkey calling device, which he has dubbed "The Frictionwood Turkey Caller."

Patent proceedings are under way for this unique and easy-to-use instrument which operates like a slate caller, has the quality of a fine wooden box, and sends out a compelling carrier tone like an old-fashioned wing-bone caller. Precision dimensions and cuts automatically build realistic turkey notes into the caller.

A small crew of skilled craftsmen carve out each caller from a single block of fine wood. "The wood types include osage orange, mahogany, and maple. Strikers are made from hardened and finished corncobs with inserted cherry or rosewood pegs," Morgan explained. "A complete set of detailed instructions on how to produce a wide variety of turkey call notes are neatly packaged with each unit, so that everyone from the novice to the most experienced turkey hunter can become proficient in using this device to call the wary bird."

Holder of the original patent on tube type callers, his own "Morgan Caller," Morgan re-introduced this caller in the spring of 1999 and it too is hand-made from wood.

TURKEY HUNTING - A ONE MAN GAME, Morgan's widely acclaimed book on turkey hunting, is available in a color hardbacked edition. In the foreward to Morgan's book, William Yarbrough describes their special friendship as thus: "The wild turkey is the focus of this relationship, and no one understands this creature as Ken does." Yarbrough says,"And this Frictionwood Turkey Caller sounds more like a turkey than anything I have ever heard. In fact, it sounds exactly like a wild turkey!"

Morgan's wife, Sally has brightened an old army camouflage pattern for their signature wrapping paper, and all of their products are available as gift wrapped items, perfectly suitable for Christmas, birthdays, and special surprises for the turkey hunter.

The Morgans prefer to let their other products remain a secret for now, choosing to announce them at the right time. As Kenny says, "After more than 40 years of hunting turkeys and making my own stuff, I have a pretty good idea of what is good and what is not. We have a direct hands-on approach and are going to keep it that way with our manufacturing process. Right now we have several quality products on the market about which we are quite comfortable. Others will be introduced only when we have mastered their manufacture. You won't find cheap or poorly made products coming from here."

Morgan's Turkey Callers, LLC has their products available through several venues, including their website, www.turkeycallers.com, which displays a viewing of their products, and a listing of sporting goods retailers who carry Morgan's accessories as well.
