Those are some lookers!
Well, for some reason, the filter at works blocks all pics on this site. But, I'm betting, if Mike made them, they look good. I'd bet they sound better than they look as well.
Wow...those are really sharp....can you explain to me what is cast cactus...i am not really sure...i see alot of people like them
Or I see those just say cast?
How's the titanium sound, differ from copper. I have a
Copper and always wondered. :bible:
that's something different,,,,,,,,,,,, nice
Now that I'm home, and can actually see the pictures, I'm super digging that green copper pot man. You selling those guys or hunting them this year? Wow those are lookers for sure.

Now I can't comment on mikes titanium as I've only got one titanium pot (so far but I'm getting one from Mike later in the year) but I've found titanium to be higher in pitch than most other metals. His copper pots are great and if you don't already have one, you're missing out on something great. He will probably chime in here later and explain his stuff better than I can. Having talked to him a couple times and getting a few pots from him, it's clear that he and I are on the same wavelength as far as what we like. His stuff has plenty of rasp and runs easy. Id be willing to send you a sound file of his copper via text if you'd like. If so just shoot me a pm.

thanks ,,, yes they look pretty sweet got killer sound ,,,,up for sale 75 apiece
Well, I was right. They sound as good as they look. Someone is going to get a couple nice calls there.
Awesome sounding calls.
That's a beautiful pair of calls Mike!
My wife got me a copper call in flamed ash from Mike for Christmas and I just got a titanium with bacote pot in the mail yesterday. I really like them both and both will be in my vest this spring. The titanium has an "it" factor to my ear. As mike mentioned the tone is deeper and the rasp....oh my does it have a raspy back end to it.
Triple Gobble, you might as well go ahead and ask Mike to make one up for you in titanium and a dymondwood striker to go with it.
Mike I'm always amazed at your work. As I was packing for Texas I realized your copper pot is the only call I am carrying now that I didn't make. I don't buy many calls because I like to use what I build, but I've never been to the woods without that copper pot since I bought it. Keep up the good work.
Wow!! Those are a pair of eye catchers! Nice job Mike!
Wow very nice Mike, those look awesome!!

His titanium is certainly more turkey than I was expecting. Every titanium call I've heard was a bit on the higher pitched side. After listening to Mike's run, it's got a lot of old hen pouring out of it.

His copper is hard to beat. I've played a few since getting on of Mikes. None have stacked up in my opinion. His calls are well represented in my vest. I've whittled it down from 5 pots to 4 and 3 of them are made by Mr. Yingling. Currently carrying a crystal, copper and an aluminum. Only other pot I'm carrying this year is a Halloran Crystal mistress.
Thanks for the kind words guys ,,,great to hear ones that got calls from me like them and the birds like them ,,, the titanium is sold ,,,,,,, if any one wants hear the cast copper drop me number for a text
Thank You ,,,, Good Luck
