Re: Ask Don Miller...or other scatters hunters
Glad to hear that Mr. Son is alive and well. I haven't seen him in over a year. I need to stop by and visit. I didn't know that he was even fooling with acrylic call making. Would have figured he'd consider that an abomination. Mr. Son is an interesting fellow and will talk duck hunting and call making as long as you'll listen. He is the last of all of the old call makers. No telling how many calls he has turned.

Re: Ask Don Miller...or other scatters hunters
This has been without a doubt the best post Ive ever read on here.
The history of this area has always intrigued me but there is so little of it on paper. Or maybe I just cant find it.
Swag, give me a call. I need to talk to you when you get a chance.

Re: Ask Don Miller...or other scatters hunters
He will also tell you to put your upper lip over the top of the call...not like you are trying to take a swig out of a coke bottle. I always thought that was kind of odd but he says he designed the call with a bigger front end to be blown that way. Any time I blow one of his call around him, I try to remember to blow it like he thinks it should be blown.

Bill, as I posted earlier in this thread. I spent a bunch of time back in the late 80's with him in his shop practicing calling comp routines. I didn't place but blew his call in the very first duck calling contest I ever entered...the Heart of Dixie Regional in Birmingham in 1989.
