A little wrinkle from an earlier post. Let's see your 4 glass/crystal calls that have accounted for the most dead gobblers while you were running that call surface. Here are mine. I have called in around 20 gobblers with these calls. For several years the Bud & Betty and the Larry Bean were my go-to crystal/glass calls.

Bud & Betty Oak crystal/glass




Larry Bean wormy Butternut crystal/glass




Steve Reeves Call Girl crystal/aluminum



Lonzo Trice Black Acrylic

Hunter22 I ordered a crystal in a oak pot after our messages. I'm gonna take a chance on it.

I don't think Russell still makes the 2-sided pot but I might be wrong. I know he told me one time that I had "one of the good ones" when I told him what I had from him.

Those are beautiful Bill!!!   Let me know if you decide to let any of them go. How did that snakewood call we were talking about turn out?

Here are my proven killers. Started out with that perfection glass over glass in plastic pot with acrylic strikers. A killer friend of mine who had shoe boxes full of beards told me early on to buy this pot and learn to cluck and purr on it. It makes very realistic soft talk. Proved deadly. After a few years and lots of birds called in even some kills I bought that cherry classic Woodhaven. Many have died looking for her calling. That is third crystal in it.The first custom pot I bought is bottom left a glass over slate in Osage pot. It is my favorite turkey call I own. Replaced glass at least three times. Made by Jerry Hampton. The glass over glass in corian come later also by Hampton. These four all have at least double digit kills.

I see you have a triple seven striker. It is unbelievable how good a store bought striker can sound. I have several, and they run on anything.

My 4.

Platz, crystal/slate in walnut. One off call I lucked out on in the classifieds here.
Sneed, Outlaw Hen
Halloran, Crystal Mistress
H.S. Strut, Glass Witch. Glass/wood in a composite wood fiber pot. This call has finished a BUNCH of my birds.
