Aluminum Striker
« on: May 04, 2015, 12:18:55 AM »
I can not find an aluminum striker anywhere.  My Google-Fu must be weak.  I've devoted over 3 evenings of running down Google hits for aluminum strikers only to find the aluminum meant an aluminum pot.  I don't want an aluminum pot; I want an aluminum striker.  I noticed one commercial pot call maker used to include aluminum strikers with all their pots.  They no longer supply an aluminum striker with their pot calls.

Help!

interesting,  You looking for a one piece, or just the peg?  Maybe find a local machine shop and bring them a wood one, and have them duplicate it in aluminum.

Try Larry Gresser at Prarie Game Calls. I bought one this year and have been very pleased with it

Roberts Bros used to make one. I have one that I bought a few years ago and never used it. Didn't have the sound I was looking for.

I would like to thank everyone for the helpful suggestions.  I was able to locate an aluminum striker and I ordered it today.
