Corncob top with a shaft made from 5/16th hickory. Hickory is the most common wood used for strikers.
Corncob top with a shaft made from 5/16th Plexiglas. This striker is a must for wet weather hunting. It will work on wet slate.

UGLY STICK
UGLY STICK
This striker was dubbed the "UGLY STICK" at the PA Wild Ugly Sticks
Turkey Convention in 1998 and I can't keep these in stock. Many of the dealers themselves bought these strikers for their own use!! As one buyer said, "It may be called ugly, but it sure makes a beautiful sound."
The top is made from corncob and the shaft is made from hickory with an African "mopani" tip. A scratch pad is glued to the top for extra versitility. African wood is a very dense wood and will hold it's edge for a long time.

Here's a new striker I'm "playing" with. The tops are a combination of all the 'extra' wood, laminated together, and hand lathed. Some of the woods used are: cherry burl, oak burl, purple heart, black walnut, & maple. These are all ONE OF A KIND.
The shafts are hickory with a rounded Mopani tip, hickory with a rounded Kingwood tip, plexiglass, and lastly purple heart.
A few even have a "lacy" effect. The lace is an epoxy that is used to fill in some of the worst holes.
