Friction Call Winner
From the Judges "I think T&TH forum users liked Tom Tiberi's slate over glass for the same reasons the contest judges did: It produces a clear, crisp first note of a yelp and then drops down into a raspy, nasty second note. And trust me, you can ring that baby." — Brian Lovett, Editor Turkey & Turkey Hunting |
Tom Tiberi, 50, of Fairbank, Pa., took first place in the online Readers' Choice contest and third place in the Working Friction Call category with his slate over glass in a turned walnut pot with a purple heart striker and hickory top.
