Title: lights out vs woodhaven
Post by: kx125s10 on April 11, 2012, 09:37:39 PM
hey guys im looking for a new pot call for this spring. I was wondering how the lights out calls compair to woodhaven calls,  Im asking because my dad bought a chery woodhaven last year and it sounds great but they seem a little expensive.




thanks

I have only tried Wendell's yellowheart aluminum pot and it rocks. Woodhaven makes a good call and they sound good, but they are overpriced. I would go Lights Out!

Can't go wrong with a custom built call from Lights Out!

My vote goes to Lights Out.  I have 4, an osage slate, cherry glass, laminated aluminum, and osage copper.

I love my Lights Out. Never owned a Woodhaven, so I can't compare them.

My vote goes to lights out as well.  Got my yellowhart aluminum from Wendell a few weeks ago and its a joy to run!  Great guy to work with too.

Lights. Out.

If I only had one call for the rest of my life, it would be Wendell's aluminum pot.  

Lights Out +  :turkey:  =   :gobble:

:gobble:  +    :fud:  =     :newmascot:

I've had both and after buying one of Wendell's....I sold the woodhaven. 

On the other hand, I do love woodhaven mouth calls.

Lights Out for me.

Main starter is slate over glass, with any hardwood.  I also have maybe 8-10 different Lights Out strikers, mostly the laminated ones.

Aluminum is a bit louder, I've got several of those too.

Favorite wood?  I like harder woods like; laminates, padauk, bubinga, etc.

Persimmon dyed green is one of my favorites too...

Just tell him what you want, and he generally gets it right!

Get a Lights Out
        Then get one lit up
                    Then Shoot em' in the face.

See, it will be so simple.

I have plenty of Woodhaven box calls and pots, last year I got my first Lights Out and would get another one before I would get another Woodhaven.
Lights Out hands down, I hope to add a few more in the future!

I have a lights out aluminum call with the yellowheart pot and I REALLY like it.  When I ordered it I asked Wendell if he had any suggestions on additional strikers to give it a "different" sound and he recommended the persimmon striker.  So I ordered the call with the standard laminate striker and the persimmon striker.  I really like both combinations.  Good luck with your order.
