I'm trying to find a few calls that's on the lighter side of the scale. I'm wanting to put together a second setup. Who makes some lighter weight calls rather that's the 3" pots or what pot materials and call surfaces do you all recommend?

Dawkins plastic pots. Crystal, stoned aluminum or slate. Blackstone made a crystal over wood soundboard a couple of years ago. Very light weight.

Always a winner, K&H Metal Yell, if you can find one. You won't even know that you are carrying it

Roger Parks makes so awesome smaller pot calls ... His gobbler pot will do hen sounds along with gobbler yelps / jake yelps ... You get the best of 3 calls / sounds in one of his pot calls...

If you can find one, the old Quaker Boy aluminator with the black plastic pot fits that need perfectly.
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

Greg gave you good advice on that one. Park's call is a dandy
