Duck Calling at Its Best!
The best waterfowl hunter I ever knew told me, in a moment of vanity, that Duck calling was 90% art, half of which could be called science. The science part of duck calling is learned; but, the true artistic ability comes only with practice time, great devotion, and patience as-well-as a measure of simple natural talent.
As Ducks Unlimited indicates and further states/explains: there are eight basic calls that every duck hunter should have in their repertoire/tool box: 1. Basic Quack; 2. Greeting; 3. Feeding; 4. Hail; 5. Come Back; 6. Lonesome Hen; 7. Pleading; 8. Whistling.
Regardless of the device used to make your duck calls, take the time/energy needed and have the perseverance necessary to become proficient. If successful, your duck hunts will become less frustrating and more enjoyable. As they say, “your kit bag will over-floweth”!
