My father's family used to make fine furniture. A significant amount of this is on display in art museums. I have been going duck and goose hunting since I was 10 years old. I used to teach woodworking, and learned how to use a wood lathe from an Old Master who was about to retire. I make the calls so I will have a good one when I go hunting. It is the direct result of wanting to go duck hunting when I was at the end of my engineering career and discovering that even the most expensive and finely finished ones weren't worth a hoot as calls. I made a mental note to correct this and worked it on a back burner for 10 years. I ended up buying a brand-new lathe, knowing I could re-invent the duck call and bring its performance to a whole new level.

This is a small business that is run by a person with degrees in Business, Education, and Enginering, and who spent a career working with others in diverse environments. Of particular value are the years spent working for the military as a civilian manager of Smart Weapons Technology Research and Development. Training by physicists and mathematicians within a research environment permanently instilled a way of solving problems never seen elsewhere. After returning to civilian employment, all engineering problems were trivial by comparison. The Duck and Goose Call Development Pprogram took only three months part time. It was a very easy problem that had never before been looked at scientifically . Goose flutes had evolved in the right direction, and could only be fine tuned a little, from a functional standpoint. We have done as much as can be done with them, and they are very responsive to tuning for resonance. We use a variety of lightweight flute lengths and Contest-Winning reeds.
