Title: New call suggestions
Post by: cannonball on January 26, 2012, 07:16:08 PM
I am looking for advice on a new pot call. I want glass or crystal, and I'm torn about what to buy. My local Bass Pro has the Woodhaven Cherry Crystal Classic in stock. What else is there that would be just as good or perhaps better than the Woodhaven that I could have before season starts?

Have you seen the new David Halloran Twisted Sister?  If your gonna buy the Cherry Classic Crystal from woodhaven, I sure wouldnt buy it from Bass Pro, cause they are too high.  Cabelas is selling it for atleast 10 dollars cheaper on any given day.  Id also reccamend a Crystal pot from Andy Kaiser (gobblestopper).  Bronzed glass is another option you might consider.

Oh boy......there are better crystals out there than woodhaven. Call Lyle, he may have something you would like.

Lyle, Dave and Joe all make them I believe. No more factory production calls when I can get a custom for the same money! And they will work with ya on woods and sound type. Try that with bass pro

I have a hunch it will.

Besides the included striker it may just happen to like two other strikers made by team members......maple from Trkyhtr and canarywood from Gitzit. Im just guessing here though  ;)
