Preserving Our Waterfowling Heritage Duck Calling

I am not trying to get pats on the back by this post, just honored to be able to play a small part in preserving our waterfowling heritage.
I was honored recently to conduct youth calling clinics throughout the day at Cabelas. It is very rewarding to be able to introduce the next gen. to our great tradition of waterfowling.

This was another weekend conducting a calling clinic at Cabela's.

Whenever I found out 2 time World Duck Calling Champion Brad Allen was going to be at the Cabela's Waterfowl Classic and I was asked to do a duck calling seminar, I said there is no way that I am conducting it with Brad in the room, so we teamed up and Brad was awesome.

Thanks! Right now my favorite goose call is my CWA goose call made for us by George Lynch of Lynchmob calls. I also have an RNT Dirty Bird that I like to use for Cacklers I've in OK and KS. As far as ducks go, I use the Lynchmob CWA double reed and RNT Short Barrel, but will he trying out this season a new call that I designed the outside of and Mike Stelzner of C&S designed the inside of for me called the Duck Koptis.

I thought I saw a DB and Short Barrel in one of your pictures. Nice work with the calling class. :thumbsup:

Yes, for some reason I really connected with the RNT's. However, my Lynchmob CWA goose call with broken in guts is the best I have ever tried before. This first photo is the Lynchmobs but we are out right now. The second photo is the call I designed with Mike Stelzner. We also are working on a goose version.

Saw the Koptis on the fuge. Stelz is one of the best.

Yes, we kind of got hammered over there for a minute. Mike is top notch! One of the few call makers who still can turn his own calls.
