I have collected calls for as long as I can remeber. What I do remember is that calls used to be affordable. I have somehow convinced myself that paying these large sums of money for calls is going to get me a better call. That is still to be determined. What I do know is that I have way to much coin invested into the calls hanging on my lanyard. Has anyone else fallen into the same boat? 6 calls and well over $500 invested.

nope not me i have about 15 duck and goose calls my most expensive one is about 60.00 most have been like 15-20 i have my faves i love my wench :chuckle:
-
I've been looking into the more expensive calls, but have yet to plunge in and buy one
-
$35 bucks in calls. $2000 in bands.
-
135 dollar rnt call, plus a cum duck and a delta waterfall for backup
-
i hear ya had the foiles dmm and now im using the zink ph2 i absolutly love it i never blown a more ducky sounding call
-
none of my calls are over about $20-30. My fav goose call is a $15-20 flute I've been using for over a decade.

I buy the calls and shoot the ducks with bands, so those are free. It sounds like you spent a lot of money to purchase them. :chuckle:

:yeah: x2

yeah, my feedback on ebay is outstanding. Sometimes you can find guys who don't know what they're doing and buy 5 or more at a time for a cheap price!
I value my bands at around $50 each for insurance purposes. at last count there were 44 on there. Have to admit, there is one on there I didn't shoot. Found a band on a drake mallard along Hwy 12 in burbank about 12 years ago.

Have probably $400 of calls on my manyard, Foiles is the most expensive, goose and duck... still like my cheapest one the best. It is a Duck Commander Ole Raspy...... and the Commander In Chief duck commander ain't too shabby.

Picked up the Bill Saunders Schultz Triple reed duck call. It is a very good sounding call.

I have 1/2 dozen calls that I regularly use. We hunt on the Columbia mostly so I carry 2 or three mallard calls, and some pintail/widgeon whistles plus my trusty Big River goose flute. My favorite mallard calls are a Haydel's and an RNT double reed. In all my calls I probably have $75-100 tied up.

I got the double mag. Its make your ears ring loud!!! Can't practice with it in the car, it's to loud :P It's my corn field call haha.
I run a ph-2 poly carb, wanna get the acrylic, xr-2, ph-2 double mag, a wood whistle and a plastic whistle on the duck lanyard.
The goose lanyard has a zink clucker poly carb, big river flute, and a saunders I-5 refuge edition.

It's really a good sounding call. It has proven to be worth the money spent.
