| Hello Folks, My name is Jimmy Schaffer. I am a custom cabinetmaker by trade and an avid hunter. I have been fortunate to have lived in the country all of my life, where hunting is a way of life. My first attempt to build a turkey call was about 15 years ago. I'll admit it wasn't too pretty. Since then I have researched, tweaked, and experimented with different woods, techniques and styles. When I finally got one to "talk turkey" I took it into the woods with me and tried it out. I took a nice long beard that day, and I was hooked. I haven't touched a store bought call since. I have killed many turkeys, in many states, year after year using my custom calls. I gave calls to my friends and they have had great success too! So here we are. My goal is to make the most realistic sounding call available. And I feel that I have accomplished that. I personally build every call one at a time, using only the finest woods and materials available. If a finished call doesn't "talk turkey", you can be assured it won't leave the shop. If I won't use it, you shouldn't either. Judges seem to agree. I am proud to have taken several awards in The National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) Callmaking competitions. I have donated custom calls to organizations such as; Ducks Unlimited, NWTF Banquets, United Bow Hunters of Pennsylvania, as well as local church and school functions. If you are not 100% happy with one of my calls, send it back. I will replace it, or refund your money. Thank you for considering my calls. Please call me if you have any questions, or just want to talk turkey. Jimmy Schaffer 973-208-9029 Shop 973-479-3690 Cell |
