Foiles or Zink?
 

looking to buy a new duck call in the next couple weeks, looking to spend the $ on a good one..it's time to up the lanyard!!..What do ya all prefer,Foiles or Zink? I live in Nebraska, and hunt open watered areas, no flooded timber at all,unless on river..let me no ya all's input,thank you!!

Dont forget to look at RNT before you decide!

I vote Zink
As they are located 20 min away
So if it needed parts or retuned , I could drive over and have them do it


But in all reality
IMO it is a matter of taste , as all 3 make great calls
Find someone that has the call you are looking for and try it
If you can make it sound decent , buy it

I had a custom $200 goose call for a while that I could never make sound great
But others could
It was a high quality call
Not 1 bit of a problem with the call
But with me , as I need a call that can take a lot of air

So try before you buy and injoy

Foiles. I hunt by his house and have 4 of his calls. 2 Bourbon and Water Straightmeat Goose calls and 2 Smoke and Water duck calls. I have had problems with them in the past (Me just thinking that it needed to be retuned!?!??!) and stopped by his shop and he did it with no problem or cost!!!!! He hunts by us on the Miss. river and we have blinds that border each other and have hunted together a few times for we know people(Landowners) in common and overlap upon time to time. Great calls and great people.

thank you guys for your information..I am leaning towards the Foiles Straight Meat Duck Call..have heard good things about it???

Most high end duck calls are great you have to try them and see what fits you

Hello,

I've had the best luck with Foiles, I have not used a Zink call though, but that's my .02.

Some of the best calls are not mass produced. Try searching the internet for some of the smaller call makers. Gaston calls aren't bad.

thank you both..but I actually just put the Foiles Strait Meat Mallard Max4 on layaway at the cabelas in omaha,im going to pick it up thursday then bring it back to the country to do some wacking and stacking..hope i like it!!!!

i use foiles and zink all season, both are really good calls
