i agree with the others,i think you would be happy with one.i have a woodsman slate and a very old glass call from them,i have killed quite a few over the years with them.they sound really good to me.i would love to have a world class slate,but the really high price tag has kept me from it.maybe one day ill pull the trigger on one,but i have been very happy with the 2 i have especially the woodsman slate.
