  • Richard Collier

    I actually completed the calling course first. While doing so I could hear how crisp and clear the Slayer Call was compared to what I was trying to learn on and decided if I was going to put in the time to learn I’d be better off learning on a professional level call so I ordered a Honker call and have progressed substantially since. The call is made solid with just the right amount of weight and length, beautiful aesthetically, and perfectly tuned. I also appreciate the customer service.

  • Darren

    The calling series videos are great!!! I AM BY NO MEANS A GOOD CALLER and the videos I have watched so far have really helped me break some really bad calling habits I was taught from people who said "oh this is how you blow a duck/goose call." ... Everything in the series, from holding the call and technique to blow properly is great and is well worth the money.

  • Kevin

    I am very happy with the course. It is easy to follow and seems like it is built for a beginner but also if you are a seasoned caller it is a great refresher. The price tag is a great deal.
