Acrylic calls offer consistent density with excellent acoustic qualities. The harder surface composition gives the call a sharper resonating sound. The material comes in a variety colours and can easily be polished, making for very beautiful calls. Acrylic material is more expensive for manufacturers and requires precise machining processes, so it also makes for a more expensive finished product.
Single reed calls offer a broader range of volume and tone, but they typically require better air control and correct tongue pressure on the part of the caller. Simply put, a single reed call is more versatile but requires solid mechanics. Single reed calls can normally get louder than double reed calls can.
In a nut shell:
• Louder than double reed calls
• More tonal range
• Better for more experienced callers
Pro Tip:
Duck hunters benefit from using both single and double reed calls. Different hen mallards have different tones, so being able to vary the sound of your calling will play to your advantage – especially on pressured ducks.
The Spit-Tech technology is exclusive to BG calls. It enables the call to blow when wet from spit, condensation, and even accidental dips in the water. This technology is achieved through skillful hand tuning, custom fitting, and the testing of each call.
