Title: Best Glass/Crystal to really scream
Post by: golfernash on March 02, 2019, 09:49:57 AM
What is everyone's favorite glass or crystal to produce that piercing note that will really reach out there?

Schaffer Mahoe Crystal

But I almost prefer aluminum over crystal for getting that sound out there. Last season I was able to locate far more gobblers with responses from a loud cadence on a Lonzo Annodized aluminum than any other cal I used.

Try a Sinclair bronze glass over glass ping pot.... She screams! The comments about aluminum are spot on aluminum over slate or aluminum over copper will scream probably even louder. The locator that I used last year was a Sinclair Crystal over brass in a purple heart pot. It gets loud but also carries rasp through the wind.

My twisted sister is my go-to with a pile of dead birds to it's credit. She is staying at home this season though.
Picked up a mad hen 1 that is absolutely killer that will be the workhorse this season.
I hear great things about Jimmy's blue mahoe crystal as well.
Also the Loftis crystal screamer gets high praise.

Thought I had found a glass I liked ....but will continue looking.

Halloran crystal mistress or perfection screaming demon 2.

I have a bronzed glass over aluminum from Greyowl here on the forum that I used last year and it still has a spot in the vest this season.

I have two Schaffer Mahoe Crystal's. One is louder than the other. The one with a cherry soundboard might actually be able to make your ears bleed it's so loud.

Never owned glass before and only have only owned one crystal and it's a Mad Super Crystal, love the way it sounds, especially with a purple heart striker.
