Favorite crystal pot

What's yalls favorite crystal pot call? Thinking about getting one for a different sound option but I don't want junk. I've never ran a crystal. Preferably custom call makers

Tony Reynolds Carolina Assassin!

Stony makes one that sounds as good as any and he's a member of this board.

The houndstooth cherry crystal, Hallorans crystal mistress or double glass.

David Halloran Twisted Sister.

When I called to order one I narrowed it to the Sister or Crystal Mistress. David said he actually likes the sister better and that's what he totes now, it just hasn't won awards like the mistress. Same design just different woods. Both are the same price, you can't go wrong with either one.

Our resident expert caller TWinters tried it out yesterday and gave it his stamp of approval , that's good enough for me. BTW, he can flat use a friction call!

This^^^. It's the only one I carry, heck it's the only one I own.

is that the Houndstooth guy? May have to check him out.

that thing is sweet,I can't take any credit for that,a good quality call will "speak" for itself!!

Southlands yellow heart

No. I think Stony's handle is wareagle22 or something close to that. His calls are under the name Fatal Attraxion unless it's been changed.

Yep, that's me. Lyle Gilbert owns Houndstooth Game Calls and he is on here as well. He makes a fine pot call and REALLY good mouth calls.

i saw your website looks like you have some great calls. Classy giving him creadit too.

Not to hyjack this thread but I'm in the market for a custom pot call also. I'm a probably order one from either or both fatal atrraction and houndstooth. I also been reading up on LightsOut calls also. Anybody use one of these?

Guys at the office gave me a crystal pot call for Christmas from Stony. Scratched it this week and it really sounds good. Actually mine is glass.

I've never had a crystal call. I've got an older Knight and Hale Ol' Yeller and a Cody Envy glass. Add a Lynch foolproof box and 2 or 3 Houndstooth mouth calls and that's what's in my vest.

Stony is a class act! He's a dang good friend aswell there's not many call makers out there I trust and talk to behind the scenes on figuring something out or just chat with! Stony is one of those guys to me and I appreciate that! I know this you won't go wrong buying one of his calls or one of mine your buying a call that has meaning, heart, and soul laced with a few cuss words at times! I appreciate the heck out of Stony and wouldn't even have known him if it wasn't for turkey calls! Hope to see some of you in Nashville come by and visit us booth 929 love for ya to say hello! Lyle

I use the Halloran Crystal Mistress and it sounds great. Picked up some mouth calls from Lyle at a hunting expo in.Montgomery and I can say, without a doubt, they are the best I've used. I'd been using mostly Woodhaven but they changed tape or something and they don't last long, at all.

Yeah, I hate their new tape. I keep a call in my moth literally 4-5 hours (Longer if I am just running errands) but if you do that with a lot of the woodhaven's they will fall apart. I bought a red zone (I think is the name) pack (three calls for like $30 or something) and two of the calls fell apart and then I called and had them replaced and one of the replacements fell apart as well. I will say that the customer service was great but still.

Another note is that woodhaven mouth calls also take a lot of air to make the reeds move so may not be the best calls for newer guys.

I have wanted that Crystal Mistress for a long time.I'd like to get one but I would like to get Soooo many!

I am real excited about the Lonnie Sneeds that I will be getting for sure.

Turkey hunting is way heavier on my wallet than deer hunting is.

Good stuff here.

I can't speak for all the guys on here but Stony is as good as it gets. Has never minded answering questions from us boys trying to learn and makes a top notch call. Genuine good dude!

What call did you get from Lonnie??
I have a slate he made me. It isnt much of a looker, as far as perfect lines, etc, but itll sing to the birds, thats for sure. Looks like the call is hand made with character. its awesome.



Any of you guys use a copper or aluminum? Thats my next buy.

I'm getting a Hot Hen Slate

I'm wanting one too. How do you go about getting one?

Hevi, you have to call him. Ill have to see if i still have his number. Beware, he will talk to you about turkeys for hours. I was in a hurry, and still talked to him for an hour. He is a great guy with a ton of stories.

Lohman ThunderDome... dropped mine & they replaced the crystal on it... AFAIK they don't make 'em any longer...

well gather up his number for me please and I'll call him.

The talking won't bother me cause I'll talk your head off too about turkeys lol

i just deleted a bunch of emails with his number i will get it from his boy and post it here
