Sent from my phone sucka
i think they were 65.00
I'm not sure on the price. He's hasn't invoiced me yet.
I emailed him and he is sending me a invoice. I was at the convention and should have gotten one then. The crowd was so bad that I elected to slide on by. Didn't know about the new slate until I was on way home. Go figure.
It sounds amazing good!!!!
i got one ordered along with a 1 piece persimmon striker. the wait begins.
I talked to David this morning. He has the call up on his website now. He said he is working on a batch right now and the wait should be around 2 weeks.
Yep he invoiced me today for an upgrade charge from $55 for the laminate slate to $65.... So hopefully he can get them up and going soon though. No rush, as I hear one of the things that makes it stand out is he assembles each one to a specific spec.
I'm kicking myself for not buying one Saturday. I'm fixing to send him a message and order one and possibly another short box.

Dont screw with me man. Your getting my hopes way up ;D
He messaged me today and said mine would be out this week, of course I placed my order two weeks ago so it should head out sooner than all those being placed this week. I think I heard, or read the other orders will take a couple weeks.

in that one thread were you were looking for suggestions on a call,well you got a great one coming!
I have 2 of his calls now, a slate and a glass call. Both are in my vest. :camohat:
I have almost all of David's or have had them my new wenge will be here in a couple days but the walnut he had made last year was no slouch and it was 50$ I like it as much as my Platz with David's Paduk or persimmons striker he had only made a small amount of them but it was a great slate it won south east last year so I'm pretty sure that's were the idea came from

I like my walnut slate a lot. It called 2 to there death last season and 2 more could have died with it if I had them in front of the camera. They got a pass because of a personal goal I had set for myself.

Heck yeah!
I requested a Holly striker with mine because I already had his Persimmon.
Be sure to let us know what you think when you receive it.

I have been meaning to post about this call I like it a lot I have his solid walnut from last year and the new one is raspier I think bloodwood persimmons or Paduk and hickory sound the best along with a fowler Patagonia rosewood I will post a sound file of it later since only people have heard the one of David at the convention if I only could run one striker on it it would be bloodwood

I run 50 Plus of them at the Nationals. They really scream and can be Toned down to do the soft stuff. Consistency is the name of the game with any custom call maker . I have worked with David the last 2 years at the Nationals and I am still amased that we pull out hundreds of calls out of the holding bins and scratch them right there on the table for the first time and they all run like the last one we scratched. Twisted sisters sound like twisted sisters ,double glasses sound like double glasses and all the Unnamed Slates ( new this year ) all sound the same. Btw $65 is going price.
