I don't hunt ducks so I have never thought about building a duck call but my cousin is really into duck hunting so I figured I would give it a try. I haven't got the tone board right yet but I will get it tuned up pretty quick, I refuse to use someone elses tone board in my calls.

I just use Echo toneboards in any I use. They make a terrific toneboard. I had a neighbor come over the other day and specifically ask for a call with one of the Echo toneboards. He loves them. That is a fine looking call Ron. Nice work.

I spent a good hour and a half today figuring out the tone board and I think I have it pretty much dialed in. This ones going to my cousin but maybe I'll make a few more and give them out.
Braz, I might try those tone boards but there is something about a 100% custom call that I like and take pride in, not to say using other toneboards is a bad thing but just not really for me.
Thanks for the good coments guys'

Very nice looking call! There is something extra special about a duck call with a hand cut toneboard. I have a pet project call I've been tinkering with that I've made by modifying the toneboard of a mass produced double reed call and using a triple reed set out of another call. It's a great call but it will always just be a piece of cheap plastic. One day I'd like to have the equipment to duplicate it in wood or acrylic so I could show it off.

Real pretty. 
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

So how's the development of your toneboard coming along? Get any feedback from the field yet?
