Many good call makers out there, don't take someone else's word. Reason being, you could take all these guys and their picks, put them in a room with 20 different green slate calls.......everyone of them will pick a different call as the best sounding call.,,and truth is every call mentioned will kill birds and many that were not mentioned..there is no best call...many good ones though.

For sure love to hear and play a call before I buy it.  I am going to keep looking around.  So many calls, so little time....

And some will be hard to get your hands on  now that the season is here.

Just picked up my first "green" slate this summer from Pat Strawser. Absolutely killer.
I don't get too picky about woods..... from a known good callmaker, it's gonna sound good, IMHO.

Waiting to get my first green slate from Mac Calls, I will let you know.

What do you think?

I really have not had a chance to play it much yet.  I did some clucks and purrs in my office and it sounded good.  I am very comfortable with the cyrstal sounds so it is a different that what I am used to.
