I'm looking to buy a one piece purpleheart striker (straight or bell tip).  Who makes "the best" one?

I would say the 'best one' is in the opinion of the guy thats using it. Every striker will have a different sound on every call. I don't know that anyone here will say they have the 'best one'. I certainly won't. Purple heart wood makes for a great striker there isn't any question about that. If you like the way it sounds on your call then thats the best one. :icon_thumright:

Purpleheart makes a good striker , you can get one from two different call makers and they probably will sound different on the same call!!

Gobble Sticks makes great strikers. Give Neal a call, you won't be disappointed.

I second that --I just received 2 in the mail this morning cocobolo, and padauk.  I love the style and how they feel not to mention they sound great... I will order more!!!

I am a big fan of Dad's (Jerry White) strikers. I have one in Purpleheart and I really like it. It's my go to striker.

I agree there also. I have both of those as well along with one in Bubinga. I really like all 4 of them!
