I got to looking at duck calls at cabelas.com....

I found a few that were quite expensive.... (~$125)..... outta my range...
I checked chein caille's website... more of my price range... i think i might look into getting one of the speckledbelly calls and the game hauler...
I looked at zink calls.... definately gonna get the double reed mallard hen call.....

I got "Callmaker" from here making me a few beginner calls and i look forward to getting the chein caille and zink calls to "upgrade" my calls later on in the season...

Im getting anxious and really nervous. Its almost like christmas as a 5 year old.
I think in the summer time, i'm gonna work on my calling habits and then i plan on getting together with a few of ya'll and seeing what i need to work on and what bad habits i need to break.

I talked with Deadly D and Callmaker and i plan to make a day trip down there (Jennings) and just sit in the shop and call and get them to tune and teach me.... Im looking forward to achieving my goal for this year !!!

Thanks to all you guys for products listed and the support. Ya'll are like family on here !!

Shawn I've got an echo...the diamondwood one...I like it, i can get real loud with it.

yeah mines one of the cheaper ones, was supposed to be getting a RNT from a guy at work to use for the season to see if i wanted to drop the money on one but he never came through, I really like my Echo though and like the amount of rasp with good high end, just not a great feed call with any kind of moisture. By next year I am going to get a good high end call just dont know what to go with. A lot of people brag about the RNT short barrel and timbre. I just dont know so many good calls out there and unless you blow them you never know. Maybe I'll get with callmaker and go over oneday and get him to make me one. Never had one tuned for me by anyone other than me.

looked at the "primos" wench.... not my style

wench is another inexpensive call thats easy to blow. def another good starter call!

it was $15..... thought twice about it.... looked at it... and put it back on the shelf... might go get it tomorrow.... it was a nice looking call..... ducks dont care what the call looks like... just the sound

the orange-colored one? a good call try it out! put u finger over the hole and it sounds good!

yeah.....i think... i was looking at predator calls at a pawn shop and they had (2) of the primos wench's and i looked at it and put it back on the shelf

had a hole that you can put ur finger over...

thats the one!

So its a good beginner call ?

Yeh definitely! It's very easy to blow. If I could pick 2 calls to start someone out with it would be dr85 or wench.

i might go back tomorrow and get it... im still holding and getting a lot of information from people before i buy something wrong and regret it
