What model is this magic flex-tone duck whistle you describe?

I like the rubber calls. They aren't my favorites but they work. Never got around to getting the supernatural but had my eyes on em since they come out.

gnaw on the cork and you can make it get fatter. Buy some corks from RnT or somewhere and start tuning calls. It gets easy once you dive in and start accepting that it's not magic. Once you got where you're tuning calls you get better at calling and once you're good at calling ...suddenly you sound good on every duck call, even the tiny toy ones at the gas station. ;)

Found a two-reed flex-tone. I mean on the ground. Got out to set up camp and there it was on a brand new lanyard.
It sounds almost identical to my yentzens so I left it alone. (killed a LOT of ducks using yentzen calls back in the late-1900's lol)

Gave it to my grandson cuz he puts duck calls all the way into his mouth and bites on them. Working on it...he knows better but still wants to hold it in his teeth. He is almost 5 now.
The rubber call...I'm ok if he chews it up but my old Olts? uh uh. That'd burn me up.
