Tim Bullock makes a new copper through call that sounds great. Jimmy Schaffer makes a good one in slate or aluminum. Tim has a couple of videos running his new call.

I just purchased a trough call from Jimmy Schaffer, Oak Ridge Custom Calls and Love it.  It has a young hen sound, which will be perfect while his feet are still on the stick as well.

The best one that I have played from a modern day maker is Mike Lapp.  If I was in the market for one I would also look to the ones Ben Lee Jr is selling on Ebay.  I talked with him a few weeks back he said when his dad passed away he left a lot of call parts that he had already made and he had started using the parts to make the Super Hens.

Here is one by Alan Sentell he made years ago. I dont know how many he made when he was making them
