Thanks for watching! Let us know what you think... and if you have any duck call questions feel free to ask away!

A Haydel dr85 was my first call too. I still have it on my lanyard with a daisy cutter! Great video!

[hankandrews]

Excellent breakdown on the different types of calls. I found it interesting to learn about how the cutdown style came about. Great video!

[apexoutdooradventuresa.o.a]

💯Just want to say Thank You! The time and effort you’ve put into teaching people “How to Survive Duck Season” can’t begin to say how much you’ve shortened my learning curve! Thanks again man and God Bless

[jdkOutdoors]

Great breakdown! I enjoyed your discussion of wooden calls. I still keep a Yentzen double-reed and a Yentzen triple-reed on my lanyard. My father gave them to me in the early 1980s. They sound wonderful in timber. I’m in Colorado now (no timber!), but keep them on my string as homage to my old man. I have moved to acrylic, no surprise. Great discussion of single- vs double-reed. I’m a fan of the double-reed all day. They offer a real duck raspiness that I think the single-reeds lack. Great video! Glad I found your channel! I’ll be spreading the word to my buddies to follow you.

Got my waders yesterday. They fit and look great. Now it needs to get out of these high 90s and 100s temps so I can put them to use. Thanks

[drewstayton]

Keep pumping out this great content, loving the videos and advice! I’m sure your channel will take off soon!

[BLASTER-vbwu]

Great stuff from the novice to the experienced!!! Appreciate the channel.

I started duck hunting with a Buck Gardner Double Nasty 2, 5 years ago. Just a few months ago I bought a DR-85, and it is now my favorite call. I think it sounds pretty realistic, and for 20 bucks that's hard to beat. It does stink though, but you get used to it.

That Echo Timber Cocobolo double reed is still my go to call. I've had near everything you can imagine for calls from Gardner/Echo/RNT and I still keep going back to my 20 year old Echo Timber Coco especially to finish them in tight.

[daiserbeams_adventures]

I love my single reeds for versatility, the double reeds when they are in real tight, no need to yell at them! Love both wood and acrylic, both have great uses! I thought about the music instrument part a few weeks back and it helps tremendously!

[squirrelzmilk]

Honestly man for me once I got my quack down and was ready to pay a little more for a duck call I bought the Hayes whiskey barbed wire with the poly insert and I’ve had that this for about 5 years and for me personally since it has that sharp lip on the barrel it was easier for me to control when I was learning to do a feed call and just calling in general so I’d recommend that for anyone who’s just starting out

[positiveoutdoorsoutreach]

Never duck hunted in my life. Hope to go one day. Thanks for the great video. Hope yall do another giveaway for waders soon haha

[reygomez]

New duck hunter. Cleared my confusion on calls thank you so much!

[graydoncarruth]

Calls are so enormously a personal preference deal! I personally use a Stinson for personal reason. But if you're comfortable with your call and, most importantly, know WHEN to call, you will be fine with any brand!

[gd_gnz]

My best Canada call is a cracked Winglock call. They are made in Chillicothe Illinois along the Illinois river. Great finisher.

[jeremygrosch]

Try a foiles straight Suzy double read, I can get it super quiet and loud on the high end, shot alot of fat green heads using this call

[coldfridayduckcamp]

I just got a Mondo LT. I hunt a cypress/tupelo reservoir and this call seems like a perfect fit for this type of area. I’m in Louisiana and from what I’ve seen over the last 25 years is that not many people in this area use a cut-down style call. It’s definitely taking me some time to get the hang of it. Seems like fast short bursts of air give me the best results. Still can’t make it bark like I want but I guess that will eventually come. Any advice is appreciated - love the videos by the way. Keep it up

[wplayaboi]

How are you doing the second sequence of “call” it’s almost like a chuckle. Around 2:37

[mikeries]

Up here in Yankee land the onliest place I could find decent calls was wherever I found them. Bait shop had a couple Olt d2s that I snagged way way back. I wore out many Faulk's WA-11s I got at rural king farm supply.
My daughter uses them as Christmas ornaments. Also worth mentioning is the yentzen.

Wood calls are better in my experience. Try a Committed Custom Calls duck call out. I think they might still make one that's wood. Their acrylic calls are loud and work well.
