A good call for beginners
As a beginner I found this call easy to use, and I feel like I get good sound and tone out of this call. Easy to use. The body is made of thinner plastic, so I don't know how well it will hold up with accidents, but it is great to practice with. I bought this call after getting advice on a good call for beginners.

Quack
This has a nice solid quack and an affordable price. The sticker on the barrel is starting to fall off already though.

Consistently Good Product
This was my first duck call when I started duck hunting 40 years ago and it is still my favorite go to call. Purchased it for my grandson. Easy to learn and use, and he "bagged" his first duck on the first day of use. Recommended.

Love the sound of this thing. And it's easy to use.
I am not a hunter so I can't speak to this mallard call's ability to attract mallards. I am an animal photographer and use this to get those adorable little head tilts you see in photos of dogs and cats. You get your camera focused on your pup, you blow into this thing and the split second when then tilt their head to see what that interesting sound is, you snap their picture. Voila! Okay to that's your pet photography lesson for the day. Now about this call.... the cardboard info that accompanies this call states that it has been fully tested before it is shipped out. I have no reason to think they aren't telling the truth. It works great. I followed the instructions on the cardboard to try different sounds and that also worked great. It appears to be quite well constructed, and it is visually pleasing (though I am sure that doesn't matter to the average mallard hunter but I just like things that perform well AND look nice). Next spring when the Mallards return to nest in the vernal pond behind my backyard, I will blow this thing and see if they show any interest. If I have anything new to report I will update this review. BOTTOM LINE: Can't speak to its use as a Mallard call though I suspect it is quite good. But as an attention getting in animal photography it is outstanding.

Smooth
Been hunting for probably 5-6 years now wasn’t the call I learned on but would be good for beginners. Feed call is easier to perform on this call while it doesn’t sound as good as other is effective and will get ducks circling.

It's the best and most popular call for a reason. You won't be disappointed.
