I have a question for the pot call gurus.....
I have quite a few pots, with most of the being slate, and a couple being glass.
I have heard that diamond wood(sp?) is great for pots, and was thinking about getting a couple.
Does anyone have an opinion on this? Is there a call maker that anyone would recommend?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
Bill Lyman diamondwood or lights out diamondwood. Scoot

I just bought a Hook's dymondwood and I will give a shot in May during the NY season. I went with the Hook's since they have a great reputation.
Thats all I sell with my pots anymore. Although I have other materials, 99.9% of the time, my calls sound better with DW.
Thank you gentlemen.
Now, I like to run a flared tip striker. Does the shape of the tip matter?

Thats personal preference. Some say they like them, because they are easier to run, yet I know guys that won't even use them. I make them however they want them, to me, the sound is no differance.
Light's Out makes a very good lam striker...

Anyone have a War Hammer? Any good? Decent price on EBay for them.
Bill Lyman makes a flare tip that's an awesome striker.
Try a Dad's in charcoal or rainbow laminate. Love how the play and the tip is great, half of my strikers are Dad's at this point. My favorite is his purpleheart.
In my humble opinion...there is no better dymondwood striker than those made by Steve Torman ;)

I ordered a Steve Torman dymondwood striker that should be here any day!
Steve's strikers are top shelf. :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:

Glad that it made it there and you like it Steve. Good luck this spring.
Lon Trice One-piece dymondwood flare is another great striker.
Another vote for the Lights Out diamondwood striker, sounds great on crystal or slate, very grabby. That's been the last call heard by a dozen or so NH gobblers.
