I think I have to agree with everything you said. I have only made a few duck calls, but I do get requests. I am very careful to let the folks that buy them that I do not consider myself a duck call maker. They say that is OK, just make the call for them. I have used Al's inserts in the past and the customers are very happy. But I would like to use the Echo, as it just looks nicer. But, again, I will let the customer know what I am doing and that I am not a "Custom Duck Call Maker" in any way, shape or form. But if they can take the call out, and call in and shoot ducks, then what the hell difference does it make. I cater to the hunters in my area, and the collectors only if they want to buy something I made for the hunters. ;D
