The whistle itself reproduces the sound of the black-bellied whistling duck quite usefully. You whistle, the ducks pay attention and come. The finish of the call is poor. The metal element that creates the sound is glued to the tube unevenly and bubbles from the glue show shoddily. $35 for the manufacturing of that call is way too much. Sadly, Mr. Haydel promised to build me a custom call with better finish, for which I’m willing to pay whatever he charges, but after a year long wait I think that will never happen. Good sound, shoddy presentation.

Shipping was fast. Arrived as ordered. Wasn't able to use it during the season but I have enjoyed calling and distracting the BBWD in the backyard canal. Cannot wait to take it out next season. Super simple to use and doesn’t take up much space on the lanyard/blind bag.

I bought this as a gift. Husband was practicing with it outside and the neighbors came out and looked up in the sky for the birds. Works great!

I'm still new to duck calls, but it's been working good. Sounds like a whistling duck and works great when they're flying low in the early morning hours.

Great product, better yet customer service. A company like they don’t make them anymore. Thank you.
