I did some price checking here last week, and Brookside has got a heck of a one stop shop set up for turkey call makers.  His prices are the best all around that you're going to find right now for overall supplies.  Joe's volume discount on slate is going to be very hard to beat.

Some other turkey call supply places......... Grassy Creek (Darin is a heck of a good guy), Custom Sawing.

Stumpy (Chad Hutcheson) is another great contact for materials.  He cuts the glass himself, so he tends to have some pretty good prices on everything, especially glass.  Contact him by email:  stumpyglassman@yahoo.com

When checking prices, remember to keep track of shipping costs, if you order from a number of places to save a few dollars, usually your shipping costs will eat up those savings and in the long run cost you money.  Also order in quantity, if you think you will need 20 this year, order 25.  Don't order 2 or 3 at a time, try to forecast your needs for the long term.  Those shipping charges add a lot of cost to your product, so maximize your orders.
