Welcome...
To all of you turkey hunters who desire that perfect caller, one like Neil Cost made, we have the next best thing. Our publications were written with Mr. Cost, detailing the "how to" in making each of his callers. In addition, we have other items to aid in any turkey hunting quest.
HERE IS THE REST OF THE STORY
More than four decades ago, a curious tale unfolded at 212 Lanham Street in Greenwood, South Carolina—a story told by Neil Cost to Scott Branton and Ray Berryhill. Neil recounted how three individuals arrived in a motorhome, one of whom was a well-known Hollywood star. This celebrity had come not for fanfare, but to purchase one of Neil’s legendary handcrafted turkey callers.
What makes the story even more compelling is the secrecy surrounding it. Neil told Scott—and his close friend and business partner, Ray Berryhill—that the star requested anonymity until after his death, should Neil outlive him. Neil honored that request, revealing the name only to Scott and Ray, with strict instructions that it be shared only after the star had passed. No NDA was required back then, just a handshake and a nod.
On September 16, 2025, that moment arrived and the vault opened. With the passing of the Hollywood icon, the two authors can finally disclose the name: Robert Redford.
The mystery behind the plaque at the NWTF Headquarters Winchester Museum in Edgefield, South Carolina—reading, “...as well as a famous Hollywood star who Neil adamantly refuses to identify”—has been solved. It also answers the lingering question posed to Neil at the bottom of page 168 in It Was Quite a Party, the fourth final Branton Berryhill Publishers’ Neil Cost book in the four book series. The limited edition release of It Was Quite a Party — one of only 1,500 copies—is still available exclusively through the Branton Berryhill Publishers.
