This caller is Slate / slate in a unstabilized buckeye burl pot with a Lilac striker built by Bill Lyman.
This caller has the true Old School State sound. It is amazing. Thanks Bill.

That pot looks awesome, what is the old school state sound. Is that a lower pitched sound?

First I'll say Bob and I PM'd back a forth early in the spring about an old school double slate . I gave my thoughts and he said that he would look for one when the turkey season's ended. In the mean time I had turned a few pots. Some glass and a few slates. Slate wise most were what we all hear today. A little high and raspy. But I had two that were in the buckeye shown and a hackberry that had that clear middle of the road yelps with only a hint of rasp if you bare down on them. Break and rollover were spot on with nice clucks and purr's. This to me and Bob as well are what those of us who have been playing this game for many years remember running back in the day. This is the sound most every slate you could buy would sound like. Today every pot made for the most part has that glass call sound. Don't get me wrong as I really like a raspy slate but every now and then this old school combo puts something new out there sound wise that works well. I found that out this spring when I would hunt the old 2007 double slate made by Ralph Chandler. The birds loved it with the nicest clear yelps and clucks it would send out. Not saying this will be the only call in my vest as you never know what may work on a given day. Some times taking a step back isn't all that bad when it helps you get the positive results. Bob I'm glad this call as your wife said puts a smile on your face while running it. That for me means everything.
Great looking call.
Buckeye burl is one of my favorite woods
It always makes sense to have different sound options available in the field so thats a great little "ace in the hole" you've got there. Sounds like you guys put a lot of thought into it. Great job, congrats!
Nice one Bob, congrats!!!

Wonderful looking pot call and striker Bill & Bob! I have no doubt that it is packed full of Turkey.
