I would like to have a custom slate call made for someone... anyone have any good recomendations?

I have an Osage Orange slate and matching striker made by Steve Harrison of Harrison Game Calls. He makes some nice calls.

Mr. Bacon,
I would be glad to make a call for your friend!
I sent you a PM with my website! Mr Dials makes a fine call as well!
Cant go wrong!

Good luck in the search!

Steve Harrison makes a great call as does Jerry "Dad" White, Andy Kaiser, and many others.Mine don't sound tooshabbyeither. There are many good ones out there that won't break the bank. It just depends on how much you want to spend. You can expect to spend anywhere from $35-$60 on a good call. Remember you're paying for craftsmanship and time. Go to http://www.customcalls.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?board=websites_brdand sift through the different websites of us custom call makers. There are many of us that hang out over there from time to time to ask questions and share ideas. It's pretty much a Who's Who hangout with some of us Wannabe's lurking around too.

Check out these calls by Bill Purdy. I have his slate call and Ilove the sound!! If you contact him, mention that Paul said hello!!

Always looking for a new friction call...

I just got one in the mail from ICALLMUCH very happy with the sound and craftsmanship. Give Willie a call

Another vote for Bill Purdy. I love my slate I got from him last year.
