Frequently Asked Questions

What is the history behind the Duck Commander 'Classic' call?

The Duck Commander 'Classic' call was developed by Phil Robertson in 1972. It was the first call to utilize a cedar insert and was specifically designed to mimic the actual sounds of ducks in a hunting context, rather than for calling contests.

How can I effectively call Wood Ducks?

Many hunters believe Wood Ducks cannot be called, but the key is to use 'sitting' sounds rather than 'flying' sounds. This technique is more successful in luring them in.

Which Duck Commander call is best for beginners or windy days?

For beginners, the 'Jase Robertson Pro Series Tigerwood' call is recommended due to its ease of use and realistic mallard hen sound. For windy days, the 'Mule' call offers a loud, raspy tone.

What makes the '6-in-1 Pintail/Widgeon' whistle unique?

The '6-in-1 Pintail/Widgeon' whistle originated from a Christmas toy and is highly versatile, capable of producing sounds for Teal, Widgeon, Pintail, Mallard Drake, Dove, and Quail.
