Ricky Dunn's Echo calls are hard to beat.The wooden Timber calls will go veeeery soft.

Also,there is a guy here in Jackson named Dick Reed who hand makes calls.An old tennis buddy,initials R.C.,can go softer and nastier than most I've heard on them.He does tweek the reed a little.

I agree with the Echo calls. I have an open water and a timber call.

I think the most ducks I ever called into the timber was with an old Mallardtone wooden call. I lost the insert several years ago :cry:

I have a friend here in Jonesboro (Chris Charette) that makes a really good soft blowing call. Quackerjack is the name that he uses. All are handmade and tuned to your liking. I personally blow a short single reed acrylic, a short single reed Cocabola and a long single reed Madagasgar ebony. The stock really doesn't make that big of a diffrence in the sound of the call, I have blown a cherry wood call that sounds just as good which has surprised me the most. My lightest blowing call is the acrylic. I won the calling contest (Meat Calling) here in Jonesboro last year with it. And it is my main staple that I use in the woods now. He also makes a reed and a half model that sounds really good. you can get them in domestic woods, imported woods, Corian (counter top materal) or acrylic. The # is 870-933-8703.
