I have a Lightsout Mahogany pot w/ anodized aluminum and it is sweet! Also have a buddy who has a Lightsout Yellowheart pot w/ anodized aluminum and it sounds great too.

Lights out with yellowheart.

There is no substitute.

I dont think anything will get more votes that the Light Out in yellowheart or Mahogany, I know the next Pot I get will be one of those.

I am also very happy with the anodized aluminum assassin pot from Hooks in cedar pot. Sounds great and is extremely simply to run, makes great turkey sounds with just about any striker I put to it and is a very well balanced call. I got mine from Macks Parie Wings and they are onsale for $29.99 and for that price I would say its the best bang for the buck aluminum you can buy.

Darrin Dawkins aluminum is a "don't leave home without it" for me.

The best sounding aluminum call I own was made by Jim Ward at Warbird turkey calls. Very satisfied with the pitch and tone and can't wait to hit the woods wih it in a few weeks.

Hook's Assassin Aluminum  :z-flirtysmile3:

Mack's Prarie Wing has the hooks Assassin Aluminum on sale right now for $29.99 I pick one up... Hard for anyone to say a call it the "best" because its always going to be opinionative but I can say with with good assurance that the Hooks assassin at that price is the best call for the money I've ever seen  :z-winnersmiley:

Supreme Talkin Dirty or Al Holberts Corian pot Aluminum calls are my favorites in Aluminum. Both are water proof also.
