The easy answer get both, I'm having trouble putting down the two sider, it's the call that won the DD Adams award, it'll run.

They are very nice looking calls!!! The sounds I heard on you tube are great!!!... I have a couple Dave Hollarands pot calls that I think sound just as good... I seen the prices of these calls and I put the brakes on!!! Holly molly!!! I've got a lot of custom calls from Cody world class,Ted Pete Peters, Bloddget, Bud Betty's and more names I've forgotten... non of em were 200-300 bucks!!! I kill most of my gobblers with a  Grams Mountainside lol

David's crystal calls are better than Platz's glass. On the other hand, I haven't found a slate call as good as a Platz cherry. David's don't come close.

Those are very nice looking calls, Platz calls are some of the best.  Although there are several GREAT call makers out there, when it comes to pure and realistic turkey sounds the list because smaller. Paul is definitely on that list!!

Paul doesn't charge 200-300 bucks for a call, lol...that is only what a used call sells for on this site, buy it new from Paul and you will pay around $100.

Same song and dance. People see what some pot calls are going for and have a stroke. They say "aint no way I would pay that" they also say " I have such and such call thats half that price and sounds just  as good." So be it , you can call and kill birds with a walmart call that you payed 20 bucks for. Some of us not only hunt the call but we collect them. Several of us can take a custom pot and make it sound insanely realistic. The difference comes after you run pots day in and day out and you reach a point where a pot call becomes a instrument When you have a pile of calls and spend time running them , you reach a level where the subtle difference between pots become magnified. All pot calls are not created equal. All peoples calling ability is not equal. I am in no way a professional stage caller and most likely never will be. There are some exceptions to what I have posted. I have a few production calls that just flat have it and I have some custom calls that a maker should be ashamed to have sent them out. Again when you spend time running turkey calls everyday and you own a hundred or more or even half that amount , you become picky. Example , I would pay closer attention to a guy who has 50 calls and he says this particular one is awesome than a guy who only has owned 3 and says the same thing. Just my 2 cents for what its worth.

I agree  also.. If a guy has the money and wants to spend it it's his business..Mind your own and buy a call you can afford or believe does the job for less money. You can also kill a turkey with a cheap gun and shells,but most of us dont..

I haven't hunted in a few years so not sure what I'm gonna do with them yet.
Probably get a bunch of pms after that statement! lol
