Looking to get a couple new strikers this spring...really tossing it up between derrick sticker and David Halloran in Ipe, tulipwood, and purpleheart, which maker would you go with? Any other recommendations from other guys? Currently have fowler persimmon, fowler black locust, Lyman snake wood, Lyman diamond wood, trice diamondwood, lights out diamond wood, hooks Paduak, wood haven flaretip birch, and dads Osage orange. Calls I keep in rotation are Schaffer atomic 13, Schaffer crystal, halloran crystal mistress, halloran twisted sister, Lonzo stoned alum, and lonzo slate

Sounds to me like you are hooked up for a few season!

You have some good ones no doubt but one I'd highly recommend adding is a Dad's purpleheart.

With those calls I'd get a Lyman Macassar Ebony and/or a B&W Ebony. Also recommend the tulipwood! Halloran Ipe will treat you well too.

Who would y'all recommend on the macassar and tulipwood?

No matter what maker you go with, get a tulipwood. A tulipwood striker sounds great on every surface.

x2. Also Brad Roberts makes some nice ones. Tulipwood and Macassar Ebony are 2 of my favorites. I have some Derrick Stuckey straight tip strikers that will never be parted with.
