Wish I could help you out Shawn but never had any high end calls....like everyone else though I use the Dr-85. Maybe I should try something different since apparently they hear the same call for the whole coast of Louisiana.....I do use Duck Commander calls on occasions.

i guide 59 days a year in a freshwater marsh south of lake arthur. i blow a $40 call and killed 389 mallards last year. It's more knowing when to call than sounding exactly like a duck and $140 call will not help you kill more birds. In Louisiana we kill mostly grays, teal, wigeon, and pintails, so a whistle is better most of the time anyway

Don't have a daisy but do have an original and shortbarrel. Original stays in the gun cabnet and shortbarrel on lanyard. Single reed calls can be soft if you don't try to put 120psi through them. My suggestion if the shortbarrel in acrylic Shawn but both of mine were presents.

Any haydels mallard call or a primos wench sounds as much like a duck as anything else. Single reed competition calls won't work any better, no matter the price

389 mallards not too shabby. not that the call matters, but whats your $40 ringer??

And yes really a good grey duck imitation with a mallard call and a whistle is all we need here anyway...Its just so bad a.. when you turn them suckers with the ol quacker

Later in the year all I mostly blow is that 'high roller' call that Primos makes. Well worth the 15 bucks.

I sat in on the call competition at the expo and not to toot my own horn, but probably could have placed with my primos shaved reed speck. I didn't find the other calls to be anything special, at least sound wise. Blowing it might be a different story.
