Told ya they'd be winners..lol..There's something for everyone with those 3 calls.

If you haven't already, you should try some of Mark's calls. I'd bet you'll not be disappointed. Keep up the good work Mark!

They all look great but as I have told you my father collected antique furniture so I am partial to that American Chestnut for sure. I really like the sound of the slate over slate American Chestnut but I would hunt any of them.

Just received that chestnut slate/slate today.  Very fine craftsmanship and superb striker balance as well.  It's going in my vest for sure.  By then I hope to have more of his calls!  Thank you Mark and keep them coming brother.

Ordered my chestnut slate/slate that KentuckyHeadHunter stole from me! 

Mark makes unreal calls!  My paduak is as beautiful as she sounds.

I’ll have a sassafras slate in my vest next spring. I love the tone of that slate.

I still listen to the green aluminum soundfile you sent me. That yelp makes my lip curl!
