Title: Favorite Pot by David Halloran?
Post by: StruttinGobbler3 on March 28, 2017, 10:01:31 PM
Hey guys, as you can tell from my earlier thread about favorite mouth calls, I'm always looking to try something new. Which David halloran pot seems to be the best one? I'm eyeballing his ceramic pretty hard, looks different. I've had his Crystal Mistress, great call, but I sold it some time back. What about his other pots? Just looking to start conversation. Thanks

I've got 7 of his pots they're all awesome but the Twisted Sister is hard to beat. It's probably my favorite but any of the ones I have are more than capable of killing.
I just bought the Ceramic and Double Glass they're going first this year to get some blood on them.

Crystal mistress is riding number one in my vest. Thinking about getting the double glass next. His pots seem to all be good!

Mistress and then the aluminum

Rarely do I have to reach any deeper in my vest than the Mistress though

So far the mistress is my favorite. The metal mouth sounds great and i would hunt it any day, will have a double glass to try out in 4 or 5 days.

I have a Cacklin' Crystal and a Metal Mouth, along with calls from Woodhaven, Loftis, Lonzo, Scott's,  Hank's, and Robert's Brothers, and the Metal Mouth is right at the top with my favorites.

I have crystal mistress, the double glass and his slate. And that's the order they get played when I'm hunting. Mistress is first followed closely by the double glass the. It the slate for the sweet soft stuff but you can also crank the slate up if needed. Great calls, great guy to work with. Call him up tell him what you want. Always treated me good. Read on another thread about slow shipping, you have to take into consideration the time of year, these guys build custom calls, but why did they get into call making to begin with? Because they turkey hunt and that's what time it's getting to be across the country. Just keep that in mind.

All the calls mentioned are great but haven't seen the Sugartown Sweetness metioned. It's right up there with the best IMO.

I agree w the mistress n Jareds recommendation of the sugar town sweetness. It's his second best call imo

I have had every call mentioned here and my vote goes to the twisted sister. That being said , I do have a flamed box elder crystal mistress that should be arriving anytime now. It was a limited number of these made and I was lucky enough to get one.

I've owned most of his pot calls and the Twisted Sister has been the call on most kills.

The Crystal Mistress has been an absolute killer call for me. I bought it the first year David started selling them and it has been the death of a lot of longbeards. My favorite striker is his two piece Macassar ebony.  I've also had good success with his double glass.

Cackling Crystal has talked many toms to their death for me.  Surprised no one else has mentioned it.  He did discontinue it though.  Must not have been very popular but I love it.  Crystal Mistress is an awesome call too.  Both are always in my best.

Can't go wrong with any of them, I like the twisted sister just a bit better than the crystal mistress
