What would you guys reccomend for someone who is mediocre to become better. Any great DVDs out there?

The best is Keith Allen's DVD at www.pureduck.com

I would love to get better myself, and have always wanted MSDucks to put on a "Calling Seminar" or see if we could bring in someone to do advanced teaching like Troy Taylor does in the Northwest.

Practice, constantly. Record, constantly.

If you have the time give some of the guys at RNT or ECHO and ask if they would mind giving a few pointers and go see them. Have them make you a call that you like and practice and practice.

+1 on Keith allens cd. It is the best I have ever heard.
Practice, practice, practice year round. Also, take care o your calls. Keep the insides clean, keep a fresh cork (a new cork can change the sound of a call), pull the reed and cork out periodically to make sure they are not stuck together, make sure your reed is right side up.

keith's cd is very good. The best option is to find someone who is really good in your area and spend an hour or so with them. If you have a good place to hunt, there are a lot of guys that would be happy to show you for a free place in the blind.
