Every seasoned duck hunter knows that a great duck call can be the difference between sitting for hours waiting and spending the day getting to pick and choose targets. There are lots of companies out there that offer duck calls. These steps will help you decide which duck call is right for you and your hunting needs.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
Step1
Decide what you want in a duck call and if you are looking for a call for a specific breed of duck. There are many variations of duck calls made of a variety of materials including wood, acrylic or polycarbonate.
Step2
Call your local hunting or sporting goods store to inquire about what duck calls they have to offer. Keep in mind that unless you live in a large duck hunting community, the choices in a retail store are going to be limited.
Step3
Research companies that specialize in hunting products, like Buck Gardner, Cabela's or Bass Pro Shops. The calls will be higher end, but you will get a duck call you know you can depend on. Prices can range between $5 and $125, depending on the quality of the call and the materials it is made from.
Step4
Talk to other duck hunters to find out what works for them. Word of mouth is often the best place to get great advice. If you ask nicely, you might even get to test a product before purchasing one.

Tips & Warnings

  • If you are an avid duck hunter, spend the money on a high-quality duck call.
  • Always check out the integrity of a company before purchasing anything online or without seeing the product first hand.
