re: What are you thoughts on Duck Dynasty's effect on duck hunting?

I had Haydel's and Faulk's calls before DC was ever heard of

Yeah I learned on a Haydel's DR-85 and a wooden Faulk's when I was 12, I was terrible then not much better now, but I'd rather be the whistle guy anyway.

I have 3 DC calls on my lanyard or in my blind bag, teal, woodie, and a whistle. I don't hate the Robertson's, and I don't blame them for profiting off their likeness. I just don't like what the media and merchants did to the brand, you couldn't go in a gas station without seeing Uncle Si, but I'm not someone who is dedicated enough to go hunt the weekend on public land so what do I know.
