My name is Jim Shelley and I live in Elgin, South Carolina.  I am an avid turkey  hunter and have been hunting this majestic bird for 25 years.  I am a longstanding member of the NWTF.

I began making turkey calls several years ago as a hobby and like turkey hunting, it has quickly become a passion.  Family and friends have had great success with my friction and box calls.  Unlike most calls you see in stores, my calls are hand made one at a time in my barn. 

Here’s what some of my customers say about my hand crafted calls: 

First time using one of Jim's slate calls I called in and killed a big tom.  I have killed several birds with his calls.  Best sounding slate I've ever heard.  (April 2007) Jeff,  Marion , SC

The purple heart yelper did the trick.  I got my first bird with one of Jim's box calls.  I also bought one of his glass calls and it's unbelievable. Can't wait to use it in the spring. (April 2007) Damion, Pooler,  GA

My buddy Rusty and I called in a big tom with one of Jim's glass calls the last day of hunting season.  Shot him at 11 steps. Don't know who jumped higher, me or the bird.  These calls are true turkey talk! (April 2007) Wes, Dillon , SC

Bought two of Jim's calls at the NWTF convention in Nashville.  Killed 2 birds with his slate (my favorite call) and 1 with the purple heart yelper box this past season. These are truly fine turkey calls. Rick, Pittsburgh , PA
