I've owned two cody calls, both codyII. The first one had the problem others have mentioned. It was replaced without any additional cost to me. I've met Bill and he seems to be the kind of man that would back up his product. I'm disappointed to hear that others had problems with Bill or their calls. As a question, how many of you own Blogett calls, and how do they compare to the codys, in sound, quality and price. I'v been thinking of buying one to add to my "orchestra" of calls.
