Anyone use these strikers? They look sharp and he offers a wide variety of woods. Going to pick a couple up and give a review if no one has tried them. He sells them on ebay and calms many competitive callers use them including the 2015 champion.

Derrick's strikers are great!! Well balanced and they run really good on all surfaces. I especially like his Honduran Rosewood, Tulipwood and Purpleheart strikers.
Well made and work great.
I really like the macassar ebony striker I got from him. Will definitely be picking up more in the future.

After talking to him it sounds like that wood is his bread and butter.
I have a handful of his strikers....so far the katalox is my favorite....especially on metal surfaces!
Ordered a couple of his strikers. Anyone looking for a high quality striker I highly recommend these. The Macassar Ebony is sweet. Dymondwood is also very nice.
The poor quality picture does not do them justice.

I have 3 with his bubinga one piece my favorite overall striker......also have African blackwood and locust. Looking hard at picking up more including the 3 letnmfly mentioned as well as the macassar ebony at some point. His 2 piece are nice too, I have a tulipwood and it runs great. Derrick sent sound files and answered questions, packs them like fine art and they look and sound great.
I ordered a Tulipwood, Katalox, Red Cedar, and Yellowheart this week. First ones, will post a review as well.
I own about a dozen of his strikers. my favorites from him are his purpleheart , macassar and osage.
They are sweet looking ... for sure.
:agreed:
