The Haydel’s Ol’ Betsy double reed mallard duck call (Haydel’s part no. OB-19) came about when a customer made a special request to have her flag on a call. It is tuned to be blown easy and soft, yet it stands up to an aggressive calling style so it does not lock up on you. That range gives a duck hunter one call for quiet work on close birds and louder calling when the situation demands it. Haydel’s says it keeps the American tradition alive by listening to its customers, and this call is a product of that approach.
