Double-Reed Duck Call & Duck Whistle Model No. 884 U.S. Patent Nos. 5,910,039; 6,234,859 & others pending If you’re like me, you’ve missed more than one chance to call a mallard drake or a whistling duck that may be coming by your set up, because you couldn’t put your mallard call down and pick up your whistle quick enough. That’s why we built the Over & Under™. It’s a whistle over a mallard call. This allows you to simply move your lips up to the whistle to make a widgeon, teal, mallard drake grunt or pintail call. I can’t tell you the number of times during our test phases with the call, that I was able to turn flocks of ducks right into our spread for that close-range shot. I hope you will enjoy the Over & Under™ as much as I have. Speak The Language® IMPORTANT: Please read all instructions and warnings Will Primos before using this product to ensure safe and proper use. “OVER” Duck Whistle Tuning Hole “UNDER” Duck Call INSTRUCTIONS & EXERCISES FOR THE “UNDER” (DUCK CALL) HOLDING THE CALL - Use your thumb and index finger to hold the call where the barrel and the stopper join. Fold your fourth and fifth fingers flat against the palm of your hand. Open and close your index and middle fingers over the end of the call to help define each note. Imagine that the call is the duck’s voice and your hand is the duck’s mouth. TUNING HOLE - The tuning hole is located on the stopper. Covered, the call is lower in pitch, uncovered it is higher. Perfect for timber or open-water calling and sounding like two ducks. CONTROL AIR PRESSURE - Place the call to the outside of your lips. Keep lips and cheeks tight. Take a deep breath and hold it in your lungs with your mouth open. Your throat keeps the air from escaping. Now, put air into the call just like you expel air when you whisper loudly forming the sound,“UT”. QUACK - The building block for all mallard hen calls is the quack. Use the quack when ducks are approaching your position. Make single notes saying “Ut”. Vary length and pitch. Feed Call - It shows contentment.When the ducks are close, make a series of very short, irregular calls, saying, “dut, dut, dut-a, dut dut-a, dut, dut”. CONTENTED HEN - Use this when ducks are close and circling your decoys. Make four to six calls saying, “Uuuut, uuuut, uuut, uut, uut, ut”. The first three notes should be longer than the last two or three. Taper the volume of each note. EXCITED CALL - Make six to eight excited, fast, demanding quacks with the same cadence and pitch throughout the sequence. “Uuut, uut, uut, uut, ut, ut, ut”. COME BACK CALL - In a pleading manner, make four to five notes with each note being shorter and softer than the one before. Say, “Uuuuuut, uuuuuut, uuuuut, uuuut, uuut, uut”. The pitch is high to medium and the rhythm is slow and deliberate. INSTRUCTIONS & EXERCISES FOR THE “OVER” (DUCK WHISTLE) Pintail - Blow short blasts of air into the call, ending sharply. Change-up your back pressure to create the sounds of several pintails. Blow into the call while fluttering your tongue in long and short bursts. Teal - Blow short blasts of air into the call, ending sharply without covering the barrel. Say “peep, peep” in an irregular, rapid rhythm. Widgeon - Blow three short blasts of air, sounding the words “Who, We, Who” with the emphasis being on the “We”. Mallard Drake - Use back pressure while humming the word “BREAZZZE”, and release back pressure about half way through the word “BREAZZZE”. REASSEMBLY: Notice the dimple in the top reed. The dimple is pointing down. Notice the black line on the bottom reed; the black line should be facing up. This configuration forms a shape. Look closely, the curves are hard to see. When putting the stopper back into the barrel, make sure that the reeds are facing up toward the whistle part of the barrel. Diagram 1 Reed Sequence Dimple Curve NOTE: The pitch is higher and requires less air when the reeds are pushed back so that the pin is touching the front edge of the notch.
