#1 2.5 Inch Putt & Purr Player, Slate over Glass, in stabilized Buckeye Burl
A rare caller these days is the original Putt and Purr player, the predecessor to the half inch Pocket Player. Even rarer is one in Buckeye Burl. This is the number one and hopefully only one I'll ever have to make in Buckeye. After purchasing an expensive blank of buckeye, it arrived with a knot hole just too big to accomodate a 3 inch copper call. But seein' as I had so much invested I managed with a little ingenuity I managed to get a pretty 2.5 inch slate putt and purr player out of her. She doesn't have the yelp a pocket player has but can be deadly with the quiet contentment type talk. Think of the sound a Lynch Jet Slate produces and you'll know what I'm speaking of. Great early morning talker or one for late season when the hens have started sitting. I had the dickens of a time to find a striker that would produce the soft talk I think might fool a gobbler. I ended up using a plastic striker, all others were just too high pitched. I did have a wingbone striker that replicated the sound from a Lynch Jet Black Slate but it's my personal striker. This plastic striker produces some very quiet small talk and just might be the ticket to bring in a wary old gobbler. 185.00 shipped with two strikers and logo embossed leather pouch.
Feel free to call 770-842-4161 to give 'er a listen, purchase, or just talk turkey. Many thanks.
