Striker for slate?

[Dtrkyman]

Lost the striker to my old Blodgett double trouble, what striker do you guys like for slate, I have several that just do not work as good as the one I lost. It was flared tip laminate.

I like persimmon, hickory and white holly.

Yellow heart is good too

Black locust is another good one on slate.

A derrick Stuckey hickory is about as good an all around slate striker as you're gonna find.

I hear steve torman strikers are amazing.  Haven't tried any yet but plan to before next season. he really likes his black locust on slate.

Persimmon, Purpleheart, Canarywood, Zebrawood, and Padauk are all good on slate.

I LIKE BLACK LOCUST

Just received a red oak and a black locust from Steve Torman, and they both sound great on my Sneed Hot Hen.

I like purple heart & hickory generally.  Lonnie Sneed's oak (?) striker sounds good on his Hot Hen.

I picked up a Torman black locust and I have no need for anything else with ANY of my slate calls.  That striker brings out the best in all of them.

I like plain ol hickory. Persimmon sounds great too, heard some purplheart that wasn't bad either. On some of the calls I've been running dymondwood

[KentuckyHeadhunter]

I vote plain ole hickory too.  A lot of hardwoods run well on slate.

Been using a Larry Gresser snakewood mostly on my slate this year but 2 Rio's really liked the Gresser tulipwood Saturday.
