    I've made dozens from birch, from tarpaper, to cork gasket. I have one made from a old rubber boot. It's quieter to carry, birchbark is noise. Black can't see it, birchbark especially when rolled the wrong way, white side out is like neon light in early morning or last light hunting. The last 10 or so years I haven't even packed one I do just as good or better with out it.
    No one on their death bed ever said; I should have spent more time at work.

    Hey, it was perfect. Some schlub threw it into the bush and we picked it up, used it to call moose and packed it out. Killed two birds with one stone!

    Can also be used if near water to imitate the sounds of a cow taking a pee.

    My cousin made me one years ago he lived in PG. We were hunting moose together that year. So he slice around a white birch growing on his property between the knots about 8-10 inches around to allow for overlap and 18 inches long,The bark automatically coiled up then used a leather lace to lace it all together. It actually looked good when he finished As he lived there i left it with him probably should have taken it home with me as he passed away a few short years later i still think of him often. That was in 1980 he actually help me harvest my very first big bull was the best hunting memory of my life.
