Does anyone have or use one of his slate calls? You cant find them anymore. I guess everyone has them put up as a collectors item now.

I have one a friend gave me. I held it in my hand yesterday,then put it back on the shelf.

I have one. Don't take it to the woods, stays on the shelf where it is safe.

Come to think of it, I think mine is glass. I will have to check when I get home.

I think that might be a gimmick, knockoff of the real deal. I have a slate Camp Call and the writing is different on the on ebay.

Camp Callers are great turkey calls  butmost people don't know that Doug didn't make the calls . The boxcalls and pots were all made for him by another callmaker . That callmaker still sells the calls to this day . If you watch Ebay , you will see them pop up from time to time . The prices for the boxcalls has gotten out of hand though .

Harvester,   I have an all mahogany box,black walnut box, screaming hen box, glass pot, slate pot and owl hooter. I met Doug at a calling contest, He was selling and demonstrating the owl hooter. The call sounded very good in the old school hallway. I bought the owl hooter at that time. Later on I would call Him at home from time to time and buy a call, sometimes Doug would be gone on a trip and His wife would answer. They both were nice and pleasant to talk to. If I could post pics I would list them. The calls have been used but are in good condition.
