Title: Brass Pot Call
Post by: idgobble on June 14, 2020, 11:50:22 AM
Had a guy telling me yesterday his favorite pot call was a brass surface.  He says it works better than anything else on pressured birds. Any suggestions about a good brass custom pot call maker?

I really like Larry Gresser's at Prairie Game Calls: https://prairiecalls.com/brass_turkey_calls

I've also liked some of John Sinclair's. Couldn't go wrong with either of those makers.

Thanks for the tips. I checked out the Sinclair and Prairie websites. Beautiful calls!  I really like two sided pot calls. I bet brass and slate would be a good combo.  That's my first choice but if I can't find one I'll go with the one sided. Any suggestions on two siders with brass? More suggestions on the one siders are welcome, too.

I do not believe I have ever seen a 2 sided pot with brass before.

Based on my experience Mike Yingling  and  John Sinclair both make deadly single side brass pot calls.

I don't know that I've ever seen a two sider brass. Don't know why you couldn't, but I don't make pots. I'd say you could contact Gresser and he'd make you one. He does a lot of really nice two siders. Go listen to some of the ceramic two siders he has on his site. I'd just shoot him an email or call him and tell him what you're wanting.

I just got a brass call from Charlie Helton....RCL calls.
He's on facebook.

Its as good as any I've heard!

He uses the frying pan copper and brass...don't know why, but I'm a fan of the pan!
