Have one of those and it taught me how to blow a duck call. Don't use it anymore as I have a cut down back water mallards call that has the same tone but easier to blow.

I'm a pretty novice caller/hunter, so everyone recommended the DR-85. But I've found the Buck Gardner Double Nasty to be easier and more effective for me.

Mallard- I use a Duck Lander LT Handcut and a Buck Gardner swap meat with the single reed.
whistle- An old Faulks that my Dad gave me and a High Roller.
Speck- Duck Lander, but I haven't really figured it out yet. When I do hit it right, it sounds really good.
Canadas- Duck Lander G45.

Faulk's WA-11
Duck Commander Classic

Faulk's Pintail Whistle

Can't blow a specklebelly call to save my life.

ETA: I've had the Faulk's calls since the 1970's so they really should be retired.

I carry two on my lanyard.

Echo MeatHanger- double reed, I can get loud with it but can get raspy and more quiet close up.

RNT Macrohen- Single reed...just an easy call to blow, has kind of a raspy whine to it. Really good call working ducks close.
Both of these just fit me pretty good.

I suck at calling and hardly ever duck hunt anymore but when I did I had a Duck Commander and Haydel, a Primos Timber Wench, and a Cut Down. Duck commander was easiest to blow but the cut down sounded the best. Primos was the one the ducks seemed to like. Haydel was just ok.... kind of a blend of all of them.

Mallard: have several, use different ones depending on how I feel. Seems to make no difference

Whistle: duck commander. Only whistle I’ve ever had, seems to work fine, never really tried another. Can’t explain why given the above response!

Speck: Riceland. Have had several, blown several more. Nothing compares to this one. Likely won’t ever change. Sounds great and easiest to blow I’ve ever had.
