My wooden duck call split!
Was hunting in southern Idaho this morning & the temps were 16F to 24F for about 6 hrs. After I got home, I put my calls on my night stand. This evening I there is a big split down the side of my favorite duck call. Sounds like crap obviously as most of the air is leaving through the side rather than the end. I am wondering if I could fix it? Anybody ever done that or should I just cut my loss & move on?

Not my first winter but my first one in Idaho. Well, I used Elmer's wood filler & it seems to be fine for now. Not sure if it will hold up to tomorrow's hunt or not. Good thing it that there is a Cabela's on the way home if it decides to split again.

You have nothing to lose by trying. Make sure you wet the wood slightly before using the gorilla glue... I thought for years that stuff SUCKED... who would think to wet something before gluing it... pays to read the back of the bottle.
