You got a point as far as duck calls go. I've killed a ton of ducks with a $6 dollar primos. I also own calls that cost as much as $150 dollars. If the $150 dollar callssound that much better I can't hear it. Some of the cheap calls sound like poop, but some sound very good. I've never tried a high end duck call that didn't sound great.

When it comes to goose calls, there is a very distinct difference in how the calls sound. I have never found a cheap call that sounds as good as a high end call. However they sound good enough to kill geese at times. I only take high end calls goose hunting and my cheap calls stay at home in the box. Nowdays though, even my cheap duck calls stay at home, not because they won't work, just because Ipayed forthe high end ones.

Find calls that sound good and that you can afford, and practice! Good Luck!!!
