I think either one will work man! The Haydel is a pretty good one thats easy to learn on!
Re: Choseing a duck Call.
EVERY redneck within a 500 mile radius has a Haydels DR-85...myself included. That and any reputal whistle and your set to get started...should be able to get both for under $30. You'll manage to collect a few over time. Olt, Mallardtone, RNT, Echo, Follies, Yentzen...I like em all. I got an old unmarked wooden call I wouldnt take $500 for

Re: Choseing a duck Call.
ok thanks yall. Im gonna see if I can go by bass pro this weekend. and get the Haydels call, The other one probably wont be there and I don't wanna order it and waste so much money on shipping
Re: Choseing a duck Call.
Saw some DR-85's @ BP in Brandon for 'round $20......they've gone-up.....used to get'em for $11.95. You might get the call with CD.....they had those, too.
Re: Choseing a duck Call.
the call with the cd is the way to go. If you do this get the zink one, think they have it in like ph1 and ph2. This call was pretty easy to learn everything on.
Everyone has one of the dang haydel DR-85. Easy call to learn to blow into but I could never really do much with it.
Dont waste your money on the primo cd and call. Its not worth it. I bought it threw it away.

Get the DR-85. It's a ducky learner/keep the rest of your life call...

You cant loose with the echo single reed. I also use a Foiles and like it almost as much.

Re: Choseing a duck Call.
I've had a DR-85 for 3 years. never had to tweek it, matter of fact never had to touch it. They're ducky calls and almost bulletproof.

Re: Choseing a duck Call.
I agree with chevy01234 about the Haydel's...best out of the package call in my opinion. I use hand turned calls but there ain't nothing wrong with the mass produced ones. I have adopted a Hambone that is now my favorite...took a long time to get tuned but it's by far the best sounding call that I have ever owned next to my original Southland (Hartley) call that I got 33 years ago.
