Unsung pot call makers

[Spitten and drummen]

We all know paul platz , clint corder , brad roberts , lonnie mabrey and the list goes on. I want people to list lesser known pot call makers whom you have a pot or few from that you would not part with. I have a 2 sided slate in mineral poplar from olin humphries that has a permenant home here. I know several of you know olin , but he makes a great pot and his name is not well known. Say what say you?

Paul Durham.

This man will get the credit he deserves as one of the great pot call(and other call) makers here soon. I have a slate in a Mahoe pot from him that is unmatched.

Strut zone game calls and misfire turkey calls are both awesome and dont plan on ever parting with.

Footballer Mark Cunningham and Chris Brumfiel. Both of their calls replaced Dave Hollaran and Hank's. And Footballer's Paduak Slate has its own pocket. Unreal. So - I came to this site to find Hal to do TSS magic and got two of my favorite new calls.

Andy Kaiser, Stumpy, Doug Morgan, Chad Helms and I have a couple of older Larry Bean and Southland's that are good.

This and not just because they make great calls, each took a chance on me paying them when I said I would as well as Mac Calls, ChainReactionGC,  Spring Creek Calls and Stumpy and they have all helped me delve into the custom call realm and I am grateful for it. I have gotten a call from each of them except Chris and that is in the work for next month, Stumpy and Spring Creek Calls and the last two were just paid today but from what I have seen and heard from each I know I will be satisfied. Also they have all been very polite to me, helped me understand a few things better and worked with me to help me get a call I truly have/will enjoy/ed. I am grateful to each of them and can't wait to get my first trumpet from Chris. It is not just about the product, it is about the customer service.

Jack Mincey from NC - definitely a master woodworker and call maker. His slate pots are excellent.

Wynee slate, Yingling copper and crystals , Stumpy ceramic, Howard slate and  Humphries  slate are all  excellent calls from great callmakers.

Agree with Brantleyville on Andy Kaiser and Doug Morgan. I'd also add Mark Cunningham aka Footballer (as others have said) and a local guy "Hoss" Simmons to the list. Hoss used to have some calls in Midwest Turkey Call under "Double S" calls best I recall.
