AVIAN Zink Wicked Series Pot Call Slate
The AVIAN Zink Wicked Series Pot Call Slate is a durable, weather-resistant slate pot call built on a construction method that sets it apart from standard wooden designs. Instead of traditional wood, this call uses impregnated wood—a Brazilian cherry pan infused with acrylic—that resists warping and swelling even when exposed to moisture, making it reliable across seasons and hunting conditions. For turkey hunters who demand consistency and sound quality from a close-range call, this design delivers both durability and acoustic performance without the maintenance headaches that plague traditional slate calls.
What makes the Wicked Series practical in the field is its dual-purpose design. Flip the call over and you'll find a secondary calling surface engineered for super soft, close-range yelps and purrs—the moments when a hung-up bird is within feet and finesse matters most. That versatility means you're carrying one call that handles multiple situations instead of juggling different options. The integrated striker conditioner built into the back of the call lets you adjust your striker's feel on the fly, fine-tuning tone without packing extra gear.
Grip matters when you're gloved up or working through thick brush, and the no-slip surface keeps the call stable and controllable regardless of conditions. Whether you're running a morning roost call setup or working a bird in tight cover, the Wicked Series pot call is designed to stay put in your hand and perform consistently without the weather-related issues that can sideline traditional calls.
