Mr Fowler , cancer has returned and he's in pretty bad health , he was at Unicoi and was selling what he had left of a lot of different strikers .. He's hoping his son may start making the strikers in the future ....

I am so very sorry to hear this. Such a fine gentleman. Meeting him was the high point of my first Unicoi. I feel very fortunate to have some of his strikers. Bless him.

Mighty fine man! Still keeping him in my prayers. Saw the Preacherman had a picture with him. Good to see him out and about.

I am sorry to hear of Mr. Fowler's health problems. As has been said he is a fine fine gentleman. I met him last year at Unicoi and picked up 3 of his strikers. I took my Halloran Twisted Sister with me and he allowed me to run as many of his strikers that I wanted until I found the ones I had to have. He even ran the call himself and recommended the same one I liked as well....tulip wood tip with a persimmon wood handle. Boy it is a smoker let me tell ya!!! No way will I part with it, especially after hearing of his health issues. I will surely be praying for him.

I need to get one of these strikers

Sorry to hear that. I had two strikers from him that I bought a long time ago. Down to one now and was hoping to get more until I read this.

You might still be able to if you give him a call. I don't think he's turning any more new ones, but he had boxes of them at Unicoi.

I was wondering about that.  I will give him a call.

I have nine of his strikers and all of them play awesome. Hard to figure out which ones I like best. He is a great man and I am blessed to have talk to him.

I have 2 of his strikers an Osage Orange and a Purpleheart. I spoke with him a short bit very knowledgeable gentleman.

Everybody who turkey hunts needs to do two things. One is to get at least one of his strikers. They are excellent and pieces of artwork, IMHO. Second, give him a call and talk to him as a part of getting a striker. I predict that the striker ordering part will become the least significant part of that conversation. Do it and you`ll see what I mean.

How is he doing? Does anyone know?
