Prudhomme Desert Ironwood

Post by davisd9 »

Picked up a Prudhomme Desert Ironwood up at Unicoi this January. He allowed me to take several outside to play and this Desert Ironwood with Medical resin mouthpiece stood out to me. I have changed the sound of my calling on a trumpet and a Prudhomme seems to run easy in this style. I have hunted with it, KP Cocussood, and Buice Lignum 5-1/2” with a good bit of success. Wednesday, April 8th I was able to bloody the Prudhomme. I struck the bird and finished him with the Prudhomme. I did use the Buice to sound like another hen as well. Called in 4 toms and 2 hens. Just something special and satisfying about killing a bird with trumpet, does not matter how many you have killed with a trumpet you always feel accomplished.
