Great video Sir, I think an issue one might have with the flatness of the KM calls is that it doesn’t sound like all of the calls most of us have heard for years , J-frame calls and such. I have two KM calls and that’s all I use now that I’ve overcome the mindset of needing to sound certain way (like the j-frame calls)
If I try j-frame style on a mondo I'm lucky to get 3 quacks before running out of air. I switched to going kak kak kak kak and that works great. The kuh on the start really pushes the air right. 😉
A short history lesson: A few decades back...at the lower vallier campground at Bayou Meto WMA was ground zero for the development of "cut down olts". The call makers of today were kids then and they were taught by old timers that filed or 'cut' keyhole olt d2's on cinder blocks in camp. You'd see tables lined with calls allegedly. I know someone that lived it. I've got a modified keyhole olt. Tape the insert on with electric tape!
You are correct about the meat part. Mondo is like a real mallard. That on stage stuff is just that… Hollywood. If you have to scream at ducks that loud you need to move where the ducks wanna be. Ridiculous. Never understood how you can win a duck call contest making a sound that ducks can’t even make. Good vid
i bought a beginners duck call its a echo i am having a hard time learning the regular high ball and low ball call and also with the feeding call have any tips
Echo is complete crap. Had one to try. Threw in garbage. Paid $150 but it was such shit I don’t want anyone to have it. Rnt is untouchable. Actually sounds like most mallard especially the old ones. I turn ducks all the time with Rnt
I tested a bunch of cutdowns with a decibel meter. Power Calls Ignition was the loudest, followed by a Kirk McCullough Outlaw. The Mondo wasn't as loud as the Ignition, but we're talking about like 109 decibels vs 103. Mondo, Rolling Thunder Brute, and Timber Thief were right in there together. The thing I like about the Ignition and the Mondo is that they keep rattle throughout the range. My KM calls get flat in the mid range.
The very loudest call I know of is made of delrin by Rainman Calls. Two reeds. Tapered insert that is very large bored. Your buddies will HATE it. You'll have to provide ear plugs for everyone. Its called WHITE LIGHTNING. VERY unique call it has Louisiana style guts so don't take it apart. Re-tuning it may take a while. White Lightning. I've seen guides break sky high mallards with it. Very loud you'll need ear plugs.
Don’t wait if you are considering a cut down call get one now....different air...when blowing one and some folks have to relearn how to call all over again.....so get it now and start practicing.....

Blowing a cut down is so much different than blowing a traditional j frame which is were a lot of guys think the call blows flat……thanks for watching

I would have loved to have been there
Great intro!

Love the intro 😂😂
Lol I had a great time doing that
Dang look at them jazz hands.lol
Thanks for watching
i bought a beginners duck call its a echo i am having a hard time learning the regular high ball and low ball call and also with the feeding call have any tips
I would need to hear you first.....don’t worry about that high ball...concentrate on the single quack.....then add two...so on and so on......
Echo is complete crap. Had one to try. Threw in garbage. Paid $150 but it was such shit I don’t want anyone to have it. Rnt is untouchable. Actually sounds like most mallard especially the old ones. I turn ducks all the time with Rnt
That mondo is worth some Benjamin’s
Thanks for watching. I think they are around 134.00 if I remember right
Any interest in trading or selling that mondo ? Have other mondos to trade need that one to complete a set
No interest in selling the calls or trading...I collect them as well....thanks for watching
Both of them r good calls just messing with you!
I got ya
My problem with all of Kirk’s calls is they sound so flat, there’s no whine or character to them. I want to buy one, but I’d have to try them first
Like all cutdown calls they are different sounding than the regular j frame call. And you have to retrain yourself to call on them.
Don’t forget that a real mallard hen is flat. So flat that her quack doesn’t echo at all.
Btw rnt all the way. It seems everyone is trying to copy John Stephens
Thanks for watching
Wanna sell that mondo ?
Thanks for watching…..no sir I am not selling it
This is a awesome video go ahead n drop the song
Soon I am working on it thou..may take awhile.....
Put a light coat of chapstick on the insert, won't hang up in the barrel as bad.
Thanks for watching......
I honestly think that the Mondo is one of the loudest duck calls on the market!
I haven’t met a cutdown call I haven’t liked....thanks for watching
@@DaddyDuck365 I have a RNT Daisy Cutter that I saved all of my money to buy when I was 8 and I love it. Still my go too call today.
Shhhhhh don’t tell anyone I have a duck commander Ole Raspy.....is still a go to call.....😁. It I do love my cutdown calls

It did look like you were having fun with the intro!! I appreciate the feedback on these calls! It will help when I progress from a basic call.
Don’t wait if you are considering a cut down call get one now....different air...when blowing one and some folks have to relearn how to call all over again.....so get it now and start practicing.....
Sweet intro! Duck season is coming!!!
