I have " Ole Raspy" it is a good call. You really should get his video " The Art of Commanding Ducks" . It has some very good tips for novices and many experienced hunters also. Having said this I must also say that there are many good calls out there and you may find another that will work well for you. One of the best calls I ever had was a Lohman that I bought back in the 50' s yes you read that right. My youngest son always loved that call so I gave it to him several years ago.
