Would have to think hard but it would be a Fowler!

Yep, Fowler two piece Osage over snakewood.

My go to is a black locust.  Have two or three that sound good and play well on all surfaces I have. Could not say who manufactured them. Is there that much difference between each manufacturer. Seems some swear by certain individuals. How so they are all turned on a lathe the same way.
Everyone wants to be successful - some just need help.

It would be tough to carry only one but if I had too it would be one by  JLH.  Most likely Black and White Ebony or Permabuco.

Of the woods that I have, id pick JLH heavy hickory. It plays plenty good to hunt on my aluminum, copper, crystal, glass, and grey slate calls. Next would be a tie with Brazilian ebony and pink ivory

I love these "one striker" posts... because you get 57+ different answers. Lol

Lyman hickory is probably my go-to. Torman black locust always rides. JLH heavy hickory gets a slot, too.

Haha yeah I mainly did it to see if there was some overlap to see what I need to buy next..
looks like JLH heavy hickory just may be it

My Applewood striker runs the best for me across everything I have...whether glass, slate or aluminum.

Really like a Stuckey Macassar Ebony on a lot of calls

Some great striker makers have been mentioned above.  I love my 1 pc. Dymondwood striker from Clint Corder and all my Fowlers.
I may be biased but I love how my strikers run.  Customer feedback has been great and I was honored to get 1st and 3rd place striker in the Mountain State Championship in WV last weekend.  Thanks

Congratulation on your recognition in WV!

Think I decided on a Fowler Wenge.

I think Mr. Harold`s strikers may well achieve legendary status. By the way, that remark`s in no way intended to denigrate any of the other great striker craftsmen. Just a statement of opinion.

Agreed.
