I love posts like this, especially in the doldrums of winter.
First string lineup:
1.Randy Clark's, ( who??? ) Awesome and unusual square gray slate. A sentiment favorite
2.Mike Yingling's copper two-sider. High pitched effectiveness
3. Let's not forget about Jim Shelly, gray slate holly, mahoe, accents. All BS aside, one of the greatest sounding slates I've ever run
Second string:
1.Jimmy Shaffer's Atomic aluminum. A call so nice, I bought it twice
2. Brad Robert's wormy persimmon slate. He's on almost everyone's list for a reason
3. Chris Brumfiel's beautiful little osage glass pot. A 3 1/4" tiny weapon

Do I need only one pot to call them in, of course, but where's the fun in that?

That Clark caller is very interesting.

It's always in my vest, ordered it a couple years after the birth of my twin sons. It's super sweet and delicate sounding, sorta like a coaxer..

I usually just carry two early season and that's typically a Buster Halford green slate and a Lon Trice crystal. I usually always have a slate and a glass. As season progresses I'll start toting a third and it's always some sort of metal surface. Last year Mike Yingling's copper spent a lot of time in the woods. I like brass a lot too really late in the season.

No particular order, but one that's always in my Glenda Green satchel is Jim Shelley - cherry/ceramic along with something from Buster, Clay and Mark Cornelius. Others that will see possible playing time which i got this summer are Gary Anderson/ceramic, Lon Trice clear acrylic / crystal, his acrylic black / alum and a Kenneth Mullins cherry/ceramic ... I like changing out my calls during the spring and a lot of it has to do with the weather conditions which ones i hunt that day or week ....

You can't go wrong right here!

An older Halloran Twisted Sister and Gary Anderson padauk ceramic. I'm still looking for the right call to round out my trio, I've bought several but just haven't found it yet. I would love for it to be a Platz slate, but I've probably got a better chance at striking oil in my backyard. Ironically, that's probably what it would take for me to be able to afford one with what his calls bring nowadays on the rare occasion that they do come up for grabs.

Crystal over slate- either Halloran or Schaffer.
Footballer persimmon slate
Stumpy ceramic.

Rain/High humidity day - Buster stoned alum acrylic pot.

If I'm feeling froggy just a Paul Durham green slate over glass and a Schaffer teardrop. 

I like to change my pots up every spring until each pot gets a kill.
