My first duck call was a Rich-N-Tone II that my grandpa gave to me. It used to sit in the bottom of his gun cabinet and I used to get it out and play with it. He never really was into duck hunting that much, more of a quail hunter back in the day. One day I was playing with it and he told me that he would never use it again and it was mine if I wanted it. That was the beginning of the obsession. Here it is.

Sureshot yentzen and Haydel dr-85

Not sure which is first one. I think the Faulk's with the paint wore off. That Lohmann's on the front left might be it.
NO, the Olt model 66 is not for sale.

Commander Clasic.... Pretty lame, and literally the worst sounding call I have had.

Yesterday was my first day by the way

Sure shot yentzen was the shit. First good sounding call I ever owned.

First call I ever had was a sure shot plastic something or another with metal reeds that I got at a youth wood duck house building event WAAAYYYY back when. It is engraved by a couple of the local sports shop owners (the Burger Brothers if you remember that store Assa) saying "good hunting" and the year but I can't remember what year it was. Not a horrible sounding call, but I learned the basics on it many years ago. Still have it rolling around the truck/boat/blind bag/hunting tub somewhere.

Ok, maybe it didn't have metal reeds. It looks like this but with a different sticker on it (and engraving obviously)


Also, the reeds inside it look like this with the two rivets

(that's why I thought they were metal I think)

HS strut something. Don't remember exactly which one it was.

Got mine when I was 10 and started duck hunting when I was 14.

I've got 2 old Iverson, one of might not have been my first call but damn close to it.

While we are on the subject of Sure-Shot Yentzens it should be said that the Sure-Shot Game Call Company patented the two-reed duck call way back in the 50's. That call is historical for that reason. Every serious call collector should have at least one Yentzen.

I think I paid ten bucks for mine but it was back in the 80's when that was a half-tank of gas.
