New Sponsor Welcome Rain-Shadow Predator Calls/Custom Knives

Postby WapitiTalk1 » 11 11, 2019 •  [Post 1]

Please join me in welcoming our newest WapitiTalk Advertising Sponsor. Steve @ Rain-Shadow.com is a top shelf predator call maker, specializing in the mountain lion. He also makes some absolutely awesome custom knives. I invited him over as a sponsor after watching him interact and offer experienced advice over on another forum (and of course, seeing his products). His site is well worth checking out and I'm looking forward to Steve chiming in on WapitiTalk with some of his insight. Welcome aboard Steve, glad to have you on our humble forum. As always, when you WapitiTalkers are shopping for any outdoor gear, give our sponsors a nod "first". They are the bill payers that keep our hunting campfire/forum rolling along ;)

I'm working on getting the Rain-Shadow.com banner/link up and flying on WT but my web hosting site is temporarily down (coming soon though).

Thanks RJ!

I’m happy to talk Cougars, Calls, & Knives. I’ll try my best to contribute!

Hey Lefty, I have a Jet Midi Lathe with a bed extension so I can do walking sticks (working on developing a sword cane!)

Thanks for the compliment on the tracks. (Tiny coyotes walking across bison horns is one of my specialties!)

Awesome! Steve is THE BEST resource for info on calling lions, and his call sounds are the same. he is largely responsible for the success I have had calling lions. I have done a ton of research on the subject, and all of the meaningful advice has come from Steve.

seemingly great guy, and willing to share his wealth of knowledge.... very good guy to support if he has/builds something you are looking for. if you are calling cats, you need his cougar package.... between the call sounds and audio seminar, you cannot get more for your money in the hunting world

Thanks guys, I'm really getting to the point of taking my time and having FUN with my knife work... they're starting to show it! (Budget knives are fun, but they're for gifts and trespassing fees!) I'd be happy to do a special one-off for any of you guys...

Roosiebull.. Thanks, glad you made it happen. It's all about the work you put in, and well... there you go! (Did I get that story? Can I have it if I didn't?!?!)

Got a great knife from rainshadow with the handle made from walrus ivory. And the guy knows his cats, real solid source of knowledge there.
