Pearls are relatively cheap, but since they are found at the bottom of the ocean, they are highly valued. I have found that to be the case with Lonnie Mabry pot calls. I finally got my hands on a couple of them after almost a year and they live up to all the hype and more. If he wasn't so far away, I would head over there tomorrow. Here is a walnut slate over a cherry sound board that spits feathers and another walnut pot in aluminum that rocks too. His pots come with two strikers and from what I understand, you have hundreds to choose from in his shop. Here are my calls and a few picures of his shop. If you turkey hunt and you probably do if you are reading this, you should really visit his shop if you live within 2-3 hours of him. His pot calls are $25 and checkered box calls are $50, but he doesn't ship them to anyone. That is a hell of a deal and they sound better than 90% of the calls out there.

Congrats Jody, his calls rock, I could spend all day in his shop running those calls, I am glad you like them. Scoot
Nothin like teasin' us Northern who will probably never lay hands on one of Mr. Mabry's calls :character0029:
Congrats on some fine calls and thanks for the shop pictures, that's just awesome to see!
Where do you have to go to get one?
You have to go to Waleska Ga to get a call....His Shelves are getting bare....I've spent many day's in his shop watching him make call's
I'm gonna do my best to make it up to see Mr. Mabry next week for one of his boxes.
That's somethin that could be done, it's about 3 hours from here so that wouldn't be to bad
