yes they are easy to blow, but as every thing, a challenge to master. i would get a Zink polycarb Power Clucker (PC-1), theyr like 40 dollars, you should try duck hunting too, forduck calls i would check out the Duck Commander website, all their calls are very good and under 30 dollars.
to learn to goose call i would get Scott Therin's Bad Grammerby Molt Gear. its a great instructional CD, and if you want to see a vidio, check out Fred Zink's Art of Parylizing
duck calling is easyer to learn than goose calling, any primos or lohman video will do, but i would suggest the Duck Commanders CD, Duckoligy 101 or 102, both are fantastic, Phil does a great job explaining every thing you need to know.
and i would also get a small 6 in 1 whistle, they are like 9 dollars or something and they usally come with a casset or CD to learn from.
good luck with learning how to waterfowl hunt, once your hooked your hooked for life.

i have a H.S. Canada Slammer. it'll cost you only about 20 bucks, and sounds just as good as any call ive ever heard. the thing i really like about it is that you can hit real high and real low notes. doesnt take long to get pretty good at it

My son blows a $150 Foiles call. His back-up is a Haydel's H-81 that goes for about ten bucks. Both call in lots of geese. I just sold my Foiles and bought a H-81. I don't think a beginner really needs a short reed call. Jim
Do waterfowl seasons come back in for Spring/Summer in most areas? Here in PA they don't have the seasons in the handbook, and they are really hard to find.
in MD they put the early seaosns in the book, but put the regular seasons on the website, no, there no waterfowl seasons, except snow geese in some places, that come in the spring and summer. look under migretory birds in the book to find the seasons, youll need shells too, get size 4s and 2s, make sure thay are steel, your not alowwed to use lead, and there are some shells that are expencive, there are very good shells if you have the money i suggest buying them, but they are called hevi shot or bismuth or some are made of tungston. but steel will do fine, you will also need decoys, for geese, they are very expensive, but you can get silohets and shells for relitivly cheep, and duck decoys are cheap to buy you can Green Head Gear Hot Buys for like 35 buck a dozen
