Traditional Timber Duck Call

Cocobolo is a dense, oily hardwood that is naturally resistant to moisture, making it an ideal choice for calls used in wet hunting environments. Its density also contributes to a rich, resonant sound that mimics the natural tones of waterfowl more effectively than lighter woods or plastics.

Yes, because it is made from natural wood, you should wipe it down after each use to remove moisture and debris. Periodically applying a light wood oil or wax will help preserve the finish and prevent the wood from drying out or cracking over time.

While the craftsmanship appeals to seasoned hunters, the ergonomic design makes it accessible for beginners as well. The manual operation is straightforward, though achieving the most realistic, nuanced tones will require some practice with breath control and cadence.

Wood calls generally produce a softer, more mellow, and realistic sound compared to the sharper, louder, and more aggressive tones of acrylic or polycarbonate. This makes the Traditional Timber call particularly effective for close-in work and finishing birds.

The call comes pre-tuned and ready for the field right out of the box. While you can adjust the reed if you have specific preferences for pitch or volume, most hunters find the factory tuning performs reliably in a wide variety of conditions.
