Christopher

Love the course!! Been calling a few years now and it’s hard to find simple but complex instructions like this. The grunt thing has been a habit I picked up from a buddy and I like how you said it’s a bad habit and showed why. The ut and hut I’m struggling on but it’s a good course overall so far!

Darren

The calling series videos are great!!! I AM BY NO MEANS A GOOD CALLER and the videos I have watched so far have really helped me break some really bad calling habits I was taught from people who said "oh this is how you blow a duck/goose call." ... Everything in the series, from holding the call and technique to blow properly is great and is well worth the money.

Matthew

The course has been a great help. I had no experience starting out but am starting to actually sound like a duck!

MATT

I have been hunting ducks for over 20 years and have always just used the hunting season as my duck call “learning” and experience. Almost like on the job training. I have always wanted to get better but never really understood how. I really enjoyed the first couple courses on learning about the duck call and how to generate the right “air” for blowing into a call. It turns out that I have practiced bad habits for many years and it will take an off season of practice to learn the right way. I am hoping that this will improve my success as a waterfowl hunter.

KEVIN

I am very happy with the course. It is easy to follow and seems like it is built for a beginner but also if you are a seasoned caller it is a great refresher. The price tag is a great deal.
