Zink Power Hen
So, this blog is supposed to be about competitive shooting, right? Well that was the plan initially, but it turns out I have more hobbies than just competitive shooting. I’m gonna keep the competitive shooting posts coming, don’t worry, but I’m supplementing with some hunting posts since I’m trying to learn to call ducks right now, and it’s so close to spring turkey season here in Missouri. So, above is a picture of my newest duck call, a Zink Power Hen single reed polycarbonate. It’s a great sounding call, with a raspy low-end and it will scream on the high-end. I am not very good yet, but this is an easy call to make quack. Fred Zink gives some great tips in the DVD too, it’s well worth the watch. I have to say that learning to call ducks has been quite a challenge. I have an experienced caller helping me, which is a must if you want to learn. I also have a couple CDs and DVDs, but the methods they teach vary. My advice, find a buddy willing to teach you the basics, get a CD or DVD from a reputable call company and stick with that method. I think I’ve confused myself more than anything with the different techniques. My first call was a Primos Original Wench, and I recommend it as a first call. They’re cheap and they work, get the DVD combo pack and practice your ass off.
