Blowing a duck or goose call is part of the fun in hunting waterfowl.  I’ve had the privilege of hunting with some incredible callers.  One of the tips that stands out to me was from Jeff Foster who I used to guide for.  He said “It’s not as important how you sound as it is when”.  Being able to read birds is crucial to calling.  Spend time listening to birds.  Notice what they sound like when they are comfortable, when they get excited, when they feed, etc.

 

This past year I struck up a friendship with Shane Rossen.  Shane runs an organization called Callers For Christ.  I tell you what that boy knows how to sound like a duckJ  We have spent a lot of days in the duck and goose blind together and he knows what he is talking about.  Not only have I seen proof of that out in the field, but his trophy case from winning competitions is getting quite full.  My predication is that he will win the World Championship of Duck Calling this year.  If you want to hear detailed instruction on how to blow a duck or a goose call go to the instruction portion of Shane’s website.

 

Choosing which call to blow is also important.  Personally I like Buck Gardner calls the best.
