Duck Call
My Bro In Law Ordered this call for a freind of his.When I told him I never made a duck call before and it would
probably end up being a plain jane he had no problem with that so here it is and it will be heading to Indy on Monday

Looks good. Did you turn the stopper down so that it doesn't look like a run of the mill Echo stopper?
