Who out there makes some good strikers with flared tips? Want to get a assortment of 5 or 6 in different woods.

Who do y’all suggest that makes some cool ones?

Jeff Harrison at JLH Strikers is your guy. If I had to pick one maker he’d be it.

JLH, Neal Herrman, Stuckey, Fowler, Wendell Rye. Plenty of others make great strikers, but these are my favorites.

JLH, Fred Cox and David Halloran would be my pick.

Really like Bill Lyman's strikers, they are in a class by themselves imo.

Bill’s hickory is special in my opinion. 1/2 of the equation on both of my birds so far this season. I have his tulipwood that really makes one of my calls sing as well. I really hope to add more of his work to my bag in the future!

I received a couple JLH Strikers from Mr. Harrison in the mail today. One is Frogwood and the other Canary. They are awesome.

In no particular order: Stuckey, Neal, JLH, David Halloran (I love with his one piece Ipe), Bill Lyman.
