Default RE: Need Duck Call Ideas

ORIGINAL: Buffinator

The double reed vs. single reed issue has been blown way out of whack. I started on a single reed, then got a double reed, then proceeded to never use the double reed calls. Now, I don't even keep one on my lanyard. Single reeds are more versatile.....you can blow straight air through them and make some hail calls, and then tone it down and put a little grunt through the call to bring the ducks down. I just don't like having to switch calls during a calling sequence. Sure, double reeds have their place in duck hunting........that place just isnt on my lanyard.
My thoughts exactly I started on a double and know I don't even own one. With a single reed call I can go straight from getting the highball to a low raspy hen in one breath. It just takes practice.
