Strikers for Copper Pot Calls

[sixbird]

I've had two copper calls. One was pretty much dead with any striker until I stumbled onto a carbon one...MAN did that bring out the sound! Gave it much more ring and life.
The second copper sounded really good with the striker the call maker supplied with it but again, the carbon gave it that extra ring...I'd at least try carbon...

I ship all of my copper surfaced calls with both a cedar and osage striker.  The cedar is hard to beat for soft calling and up to medium volume on my pot design.  Osage gives the sound a bit more edge and attitude. 

Remember that all pots are not made the same.  There are many variables from one callmaker's design to the next.  What sounds good on one copper call may not sound as good, or may sound better on another copper call.
