I get it, you just could not leave it alone. As odd as it seems I get it. So one day when you're ready you should come on down to the coast and I will school you on how to cook BBQ chicken and pork without burning the crap out of it.

you forgot about the Costa sunglasses, Big Green Egg and yeti ball caps

Joey, just get Wal to make you a call. Purdy darn good call!






Unless you want something flashy

You seem to be a faulks minion.

I get it wayno, you like white pro wing sneakers, rustler jeans, and cheap duck calls. No need to put down quality products to make yourself feel better.

Btw, your so called marketing company consultant sounds like a dishonest pos. RNT and Echo have actual skins on the wall, not some consultant and a china man with a machine shop.

As long as you leave that gawd aweful soup and breaking yellow lab in the pontoon, I'M IN!

You still need a hug or you over your butt hurt?

An anonymous PM arrived with a picture of Barneywho's pork butt. It is not supposed to look like that.

Looks like he builds one heck of a mallard call.

I will leave the hugs you're offering up for someone else. I am not into dudes hugging each other, in fact it creeps me out you would mention it over and over.

Whats the story behind the burned chicken and pork butts?

Why are all the coastal diver hunters arguing about mallard calls anyway? We all know old folks are stuck in their ways, that's why they love their faulks and yentzens. Don't know what to tell you if you truly believe that a faulks is a better call than a RNT. Every duck hunter wants a call that simply has "one end" right??? lol much less that end being a dull flat single quack

Obviously you missed the point or you are purposefully misquoting me.

missed the point says the guy who goes on a page long rant about power strokes, yetis, and trends in response to recommendations on a quality duck call

I never put down Rich N Tone. I think they make a great call. Something has to pay for the 20 plus employee company. Are you saying Rich N Tone don't have a marketing firm that searches far and wide to shoot ducks on video? Are you implying they just happened to have this grand company and no marketing strategies put them where they are today? You really want me to believe it was one lonesome man on the Arkansas prairie with a chunk of wood and a pocket knife. That call was so good people flocked from all over the world to buy it and no marketing strategies were involved. I got a bridge you need to buy. Talk to any Marketing company and the first thing they will tell you is exactly what I wrote. You have to tap into the internet and you have to have good quality Youtube video to do it. They will tell you if doesn't grab the viewer within seconds they will move on.

So far as China, I refuse and will always refuse. That is not my style. I will remain the lone dude on the San Bernard Prairie with a block of wood and a pocket knife. I like making them one at a time. I like making what I want to make, when I want to make it. I like I don't have to make 10,000 calls to pay the overhead of a large marketing firm before I see a dime profit.

I don't know what it is with you two nor why this ever developed. We should all simply be able to host an opinion without a couple of immature boys as yourselves chattering like two little chiquaqua puppies. I for the life of me have never figured out what valuable information you have ever contributed to this section of the forum. All I ever read from either of you two are curt one liners that you believe make you look as if you know something the other guys don't. It actually turns people off of the forum and they hesitate to join into the discussion. Lets end this here and go on our way as I have grown completely bored with the entire discussion.

All are good calls. Some just cost less so they are not in style for the yuppie hunters. No big thing they appreciate the money you spend.... Sorry had to reach into my new yeti to get a cold drink. Now to think of it this new diesel sure uses a lot of fuel. Anyway if it brings in ducks use it but might as well save some money on the call so we can buy the new blind side square shot loads.

Wal your too long to read (tltr) responses are becoming more crazy horse-like each day. I apologize for expressing my opinion you old crazy cod!

This is one of the dumbest threads I've seen on here since that high pains Yankee called upper bay decoys Walmart brand.

Man...talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

I hope the OP was able to pull at least a little useful information out of this thread.

good thing butch had the internet, youtube, Chinese manufacturing, and top of the line videos back in 76....RNT wouldn't be what it is without it

...but it's not 1976 any more...

Thank you all for the input, advice and entertainment. I appreciate and enjoy it all.

no problem joey. but to answer your question lol, go somewhere that has quite a few higher end calls that you can try. Don't just buy a 100 some odd dollar RNT from somewhere because the design you buy may not fit your calling style at all

Look on eBay or the Facebook duck call groups and buy used. There are bargains to be had on quality calls. I have several bargains for sell myself

For years I've been using the primes wrench calls. They sound really good. I've gotten the zink nbg and ATM last year and really like them too

I'd listen to the guy with a lot of clout...



or just go with whatever this guy is using, for the attaboys
