What type duck call do you prefer to use, a double or a single? I've always used douvle reeds but I'm trying to learn a single. To and from work that's all I do is blow on this single and I'm dang close to having it down I think. It sure would be nice to get some instruction on it though. I think that would cut down the learning curve a little. Salty you have any advice? |

I prefer the single. A friend of mine from SE LA came to stuttgart years ago to hunt w/ us & the old man @ Macks gave the best duck call answer I have ever heard...Chris asked, which one of these calls is the best. Old timer said The one YOU can blow. I think we decided he should stick with the haydel gadwal call.

whatever sounds best, i blow a single but also have a double on my lanyrd, doubles are great timber calls singles tend to be a little louder although my RNT original acrylic is perfect i can be quiet when them ducks are close but i can reach out there and not sound stupid, another good one is the echo meat hanger |

I have always used single reeds. I use a hobo prime meat and I can get pretty soft with it(although I prefer a drake whistle in close)I can also highball the shit out of it. They way I look at it is that we all talk different, so do ducks. I think if you keep the right volume, don't say to much, and don't make an off tone quack. You should be fine. After all most of the time I am just sitting there and ducks land in the spread. |

Both I'm in the same boat. Always used doubles mostly because never found a single I liked and could make sound good. Ordered some calls from killer Kallz with my logos on them and kept one single and one double for myself. I love them both! I can make real soft or loud calls with both which soft tends to be hard with a single. If you're looking for a good single that is easy to use and can be soft or loud I recommend the Killer Kallz |

RNT Short Barrel acrylic Here's a few thoughts I have one the subject. #1- Mallard hens are loud. Some are raspy, some sound like a kid hitting puberty, and some are inbetween. #2- They dont change their volume when other ducks get closer, neither should you. Just quack and give em some feeding clucks when they're close, and not the fast rolling feed call, ducks don't hardly ever do that. #3- You don't want a quiet call in the woods. It's hard enough for them to see the blocks while hauling ass over the trees, let alone locate a quiet toned down duck call. Be loud, kick the water, pull the jerk string, and let em know there's something down there they need to come check out. #4- For the most part the flying birds are only hearing bits and pieces of your calling. There's lots of noise from their wings and the other birds they may be flying with. #5- I've heard very few real good sounding double reeds. |
