Mike invited me into his home and sat with me while he tuned calls. His wife offered to cook me supper while we played with duck calls. He let me play with about 30 calls in his collection. I bought one from him and will be my go to call this season. If you haven’t listened to his calls you need to give Challenger calls a shot. He is a great listen to hunting’s past in the area. I enjoyed my time with him.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing! Yes, Mike and his wife are awesome people, and his calls are fantastic! I'm looking forward to using them this hunting season.

@Goosemaster1810 3 года назад

Another good one Joel. It’s really cool to watch a craftsman do his thing when making a call. I remember sitting with Ken Martin several times over the years a watch him make his duck and Goose calls. He could just look at the guts of a call and knew exactly what it needed.Enjoy how you cover the entire scope of the waterfowl experience. God Bless and keep em coming

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

Thats a very cool experience for you David. Ken Martin, certainly one of the duck call legends!

@Goosemaster1810 3 года назад

@@SurvivingDuckSeason His goose calls ruled southern Illinois goose hunting for years. Up until the flute call started making its mark. His little duck call was also impressive.

@jasonvelasquez6673 3 года назад

Got a yensen sureshot....+35 yrs old never replaced the reeds or wedge. It has been refinished -stained and poly'd 2x. Sounds as good as it did when I got it. I use a dollar bill in the field to floss the reed

@randalljaquez3509 3 года назад

I have a RnT -Bois D'Arc barrel with a plastic insert that I have had since 2001.. I have never cleaned or removed the insert or replaced anything. It was tuned by Butch and it is still my go too!!! I've but many new calls since then but when in the blind and birds are flying.. I grab old reliable and she talks them right on in.... it's the raspiest old hen sounding call I've had... and I dip snuff the while calling... I would say it has tons of character

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

I bet it does have tons of character!

@cfoutdoors243 3 года назад

@mattcrook7263 3 года назад

Hey joel, Great video. I have a du call i retooled and tuned when i was a kid. I just want to say i can make almost every sound with this call now.i can mallard hen,gadwall and make teal squeals. I would love to demonstate somehow and back engineer this call. I'M TELLING YOU! YOU WOULD BE FLABBERGASTED AND AMAZED.

@mattcrook7263 3 года назад

I use this email: imateamroper2@aol.com If u ever wanna contact me.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

That's cool Matt! Yeah, many people don't realize what can be done if you're willing to mess with a call.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

Thanks!

@kraigkaatz6858 3 года назад

Great information...

@aimkhan83 3 года назад

Great video. I have some cheap calls, I’ll try some trimming on those first see how it goes before touching my main ones.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

It's just reed material, so you wont ruin your calls.

@jwrees57 3 года назад

My calling is embarrassing but somehow it works sometimes. Never have changed anything and only cleaned them when needed.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

@graydoncarruth5044 3 года назад

Man I am loving your stuff! The information is just as good as the shooting. Any chance you could do a review on a Stinson call? Full disclosure, I'm a total loyalist but would like to hear your thoughts.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

Thanks, I appreciate it! Anything's possible.

@mattcoastal2898 2 года назад

Does the squeak/squeal sound come from the call or is it how the person calls? I can get a Cajun squeal on my RNT micro hen but struggle on other calls.

@wholeass83 10 месяцев назад

All my calls have rubber instead of cork. Is cork better?

@wholeass83 10 месяцев назад

What does cut down mean?

@isaaccrumpton8686 3 года назад

Hey mr. Joel what happened to that video called confidence decoys it said you removed it.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

Technical Difficulties... that one is coming soon!

@dndaughtery 3 года назад

Could you do a video on when to cut em?

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

I actually have it slated on my list for production. It's a common problem that so many guys have. Thanks for mentioning, I'm glad we're on the same page!

@stephensimmons5397 3 года назад

Can u post the link I want to get a call from challenger calls that guy is a tune master

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

It's in the description of this video, but here it is too: facebook.com/mike.benton.376043

@paulperutelli5957 3 года назад

You should have moved the camera over the top of him & showed him making each cut on the reed.

@parkert2710 3 года назад

Hi Joel, I was wondering what I could do if my tone board and barrel won't come apart? Love the videos! You even inspired my dad to buy some High n Drys. Also, I would love to enter a giveaway! Thanks for understanding! Please subscribe to Utah Outdoorboys, it would be much appreciated!

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

You might try putting your call in the freezer overnight. When you take it out of the freezer, immediately try to take it apart. It’s worked for me.

@lucienfontenelle3860 3 года назад

You both checked your reeds to see what way they naturally bent, but neither of you said whether the bend should be up or down!

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

Well, i guess we accidentally edited that out (whoops). You want the is the inside of the bow to lay against the tone board. Sorry we missed that, and thanks for pointing it out!

@fullstrapoutdoors9154 3 года назад

What's your Favorite call?

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

I'm a cut down guy. I have been blowing an RNT Mondo for 5 years now. I will be blowing a challenger cut down this season too, to see how I like it.

BLOWING TIPS OFF REEDS ONCE A WEEK?!

@robbwatts4404 Год назад

Thats not the correct way to put a reed and cork in a duck call. A reed has a top and a bottom. When you put the reed length ways in between your thumb and index finger and slightly bend the reed the part of the reed that bends away from you is the part of the reed that goes down on the tone board. Then you place the reed all the way to the back of the tone board while you have the cork in your mouth, while doing this never let go of the reed you don't want the reed to come away from the back of the tone board. While holding the top of the reed on top of the tone board cut the cork as close to the edge of the cork slot. Never let go of the reed until the cork is set perfectly. Then you start cutting your reed if it's a new reed, if it's an old reed always know when you put a new cork in a call it will make the call easier to blow. It takes a lot of practice, always order more reeds and cork than what you think you will need.

@mikeries8549 3 года назад

Grrr. Ive had to learn all these things the hard way alone in a duck desert. Remember your first Olt or whatever? Had this little piece of paper instructions. Said something like "say tah tah tah or kaw kaw kaw". Total garbage. Good calls. Bad instructions.

@SurvivingDuckSeason 3 года назад

Yeah, back in the day the instructions were pitiful. LOL
