Zink Goose Call Question

Postby Tyler8492 » Sun Jun 16, 2013 2:36 pm

I am looking at Zink's Goose Calls. I am wandering which of their calls are the most quiet and which call has the deepest tone?

Why zink? Why not another company? There are a bunch of options out there that are much better than Zink. I have not used them because I dont like how light they are tuned.

I'll more than likely just mount it right there in the field.

Call Zink if you are set on them. I recommend shopping around a bit...

I think this is where something clever about tapatalk should go.

Lotta callmakers out there. Most likely P.S. Olt has sold more calls than any other company.
A-50 is quite a deep and loud Canada goose call.

If your asking about quality... Most big companies offer warranty on their reeds, if broken all you have to do is call. If you break a barrel or insert, you did something wrong and that is that.

If your asking about sound... That is up to you. I am very picky about the sound of a call and only after lots of use can I come a custom to a call, but most good callers can pick up any decent call and use it to call in a duck/goose.


I guess what I am saying is, no one can tell you if a call is good for you.
Shop around, and if you like the call buy it.

I only run Zink calls. I have a Call of Death for a higher pitched call and a NOS for lower pitched.

It should be said that a good caller sounds good on any call.

My suggestion is to ask about which is the hardest to run.
Run one a while and then switch around.
The skills you get from running a Cement mixer" makes you drive a ferrari better.
If you start with a sports car...plan on wrecking it. Ie: drive it very poorly.
That my opinion on why you should have many calls.
Once you learn to tune a call and use your voice...its downhill.
I fo duck valls and have assumed goose is the same...it is.
Here is the easiest goose call to run I have ever touched.
Original reed. The call is very old.

I run a COD and the user friendliness of it is amazing. So easy to use. But any other call in the hands of a pro can top it any day but if you are looking for Goose and not an experienced caller then the COD is the way to go IMO or a cheap BGC honker hammer.

I tried the new BGC goose call coming out, it hasnt been named yet and it ran amazingly very close if not better to the COD, also was at Bass Pro and they had a RNT mongoose and that thing was so smooth.
