JLH frogwood or Clay Townsend snakewood/persimmon top
Fowler Snakewood/Osage
Not to toot my own horn but I'd use the Gooserbat All Weather Striker. It's a composite, plays at 95% when wet, and sound very good on every surface we've tried.
Clay Townsend bloodwood with a persimmon top or a Derrick Stuckey one piece macassar Ebony. That being said , the 2 I own. A maker can build 10 and each one will sound diffrent. I actually have 4 of Derrick Stuckeys Macassar strikers and three or ok and are picky what they run on. I have one that plays awesome on everything. Wanted to get a back up in case I lost it. Over the years I bought 3 and none will hold a candle to the first one I got from him.
