I used a Blackstone green slate and a Halloran twisted sister on almost every hunt this season.
I have Blackstone's green slate and it is a killer, probably the best sounding slate I have ever heard. My next investment will be Halloran's Metal Mouth II, it is plum full of turkey.

Green Slate by Blackstone is a goodn foxhole. Kaiser's aluminum worked in very windy and rainy conditions and helped me seal the deal in Ky this spring

Not being an avid pot call user and never having owned a custom call, I looked through all these recommendations. I realized that Lights Out is right in my county here in Arkansas. I called up Wendell and will be going to check out his shop next week. Small World. I don't know enough to buy a call online and feel comfortable with my purchase, so it is great to find a place I can go directly to and meet the man that makes the call.

The man makes a fine call. And to be able to hear him run one and get instruction...

You chose wisely.

If you want something "nice" to look at and sound good, any of the custom calls mentioned are fine. If you just want a cheap turkey killer...the knight & hale pot calls are great. I must have over 25 custom pot calls... but it's the cheap production calls that actually kill the most birds for me. Here are a few good ones on sale for less than $15.00

This one is a stabilized spalted birch pot. I also offer in a non stabilized wood. When I make a call, the pot needs to be dense, if it isn't, I stabilize it. As for the sound, there is no sound a hen Turkey makes that can't be done on these calls. This past season I called in 6 birds in 2 states with it
