  • Cougar Martin

    Absolutely love the [Drake Slayer]. It takes much less air than my other calls to get good notes. I would recommend to all my friends. The instructional calling series is great too.

  • Clifton

    I'm new to calling, I have gotten the instructional course with the DUBAR. So far I have been very pleased with the course and the call. They have been very helpful and the customer service have been incredible. This will not be the last call I get. Thank you so very much Slayer Calls!!!

  • Josh

    I am new to calling and I really like this call. I also got the instructional series and it is great as well! I highly recommend both. The customer service is awesome as well.

  • Dale Hawgman

    Got the call very quickly. I am a new duck hunter. I found this call easy to blow and is making my learning progress very quickly. I teamed my new call with the instructional calling series and I believe I am progressing well. Highly recommend both the call and the video series.

  • Paul Bindert

    I am new to duck calling and came across this call after extensive research online. I was skeptical at first but thought if a company pairs instructional videos (Call the Wild) with their calls, they have to be good. I can honestly say this call was phenomenal over the last two weekends for me as it never seized despite how much air I put through it and had a great sound quality. I would definitely recommend this to friends and family.

  • Matthew

    The course has been a great help. I had no experience starting out but am starting to actually sound like a duck!

  • Matt

    I have been hunting ducks for over 20 years and have always just used the hunting season as my duck call “learning” and experience. Almost like on the job training. I have always wanted to get better but never really understood how. I really enjoyed the first couple courses on learning about the duck call and how to generate the right “air” for blowing into a call. It turns out that I have practiced bad habits for many years and it will take an off season of practice to learn the right way. I am hoping that this will improve my success as a waterfowl hunter.
