Well, its not my first call. But it is my first duck call. I have been wanting to make one for some time now. A buddy just had a baby boy and he is a big duck hunter, so I thought I would make the baby his first call.

Congrats on the baby!!
You've got a nice touch on those calls.

(edit) congrats to your buddy. I don't know how I read it was yours.
Hey that one is pretty sweet - nice work! Really nice. That would do well anywhere. I know some duck call makers that would be proud of that one.
Now, go slap you sels and write on a pad of paper
"I am a Predator Call Maker" 1000 times so you don't forget who you really are LOL.
just kidding - I made two turkey calls this month for a kid I talke out on Youth Weekend and his dad - it's nice to branch out sometimes - long as you can find the road back -
ignore that voice in your head that says
"Matt - I am your Father"
We don't want to lose you to the dark side - you have too much talent and pptential!

That call is beautiful Matt.........in time I believe that young'un will be very proud of that call. It for sure will always be a conversation piece in the duck bllind........ :congrats:
I have wondered if making duck calls was the place to be. A person could make a call and put a distress reed in it and sell it for $20 or put a duck reed in it and sell it for $200 :shrug: That is another topic I know has been discussed.
Dont worry, I am definately not a fowler. But, I love making calls. Last night I was in the garage and found a pen laying there so I tore it apart, cut it up, slapped a piece of mylar on it and made a call. I love making calls, it keeps me out of the dark side. I love predator hunting and I don't duck hunt, but I do turkey hunt :wo:
Lookin' good Matt.......stay with it!!

I can see Matt in his shop - a bubble appears over his head - Yoda is inside. He says - don't think - do. Take the pen - see the pen - make the pen a predator call. Do.
then Master Miogy from the Karate Kidi shows up - looks - and looks again and says
wax on - wax off
Matt - you need some sleep :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:

thats awesome
Al, that pretty much nails it on the head. I am working on some different tone boards based off of what E.L.K uses when I saw that pen laying there. I heard a little voice say "I bet you can't make that into a open reed call". Well I proved him wrong :eyebrownod:.
SLEEP!! Sleep is when you think about calls, work is when you sleep or think about calls. I can get into the whole waxing thing but I know how some of you guys might take that one. :roflmao:
Very nice call
Looks good Matt! Nice work!
Brent
