The best 2 pot calls thread got me thinking.

If you could only take 1 pot call call (double siders count) and 3 strikers for a hunt that required you to be at your lightest load possible .......what would you bring with you? Let's say its a location where Easterns and Rios are the prey.

Mine would be a gray slate with a hickory, dymondwood and ipe striker.

Screamin Demon II, strikers would be carbon tip for wet weather, a solid maple I whittled, and a dymondwood.
A quality paddle caller will most run itself.  It just needs someone to carry it around the woods. Yoder409
Over time...they come to learn how little air a good yelper actually requires. ChesterCopperpot

I will not limit myself when it comes to calls.  I normally carry 4 different pots, 8 different strikers, a box and several mouth calls.  I want a variety and I'll continue to try combos until the turkeys respond.  I believe turkeys are like fish, keep changing up until they respond.  Some days they will gobble at anything, other days....  I personally will leave other things out of my vest then go to the woods with only 1 call.  Besides calls aren't heavy enough to leave at home.

It is just a hypothetical situation

If it was going to be damp or raining it would be a Dawkins crystal in a plastic pot with a Yingling fiber striker if it was going to be nice I would go with the Atomic 13 with diamond wood.

Bowguy

I'd use an atomic 13 as well. Diamondwood striker

My pick for a  caller  would be a Yingling copper in a cast pot. It would cover all conditions either wet, dry or humid.  For strikers Lyman red cedar, Yingling  fiber rod and Lyman osage.
