It was good to meet you. If I can be of any help let me know. I am glad that you like the calll and thanks for the kind words.

Thousands of good people have left New York due to the economey, taxes, cost of living, etc. For me, this is the icing on the cake. I am officially working on a plan to get out of here and I am thinking that I am not alone. On a national level I think that Obama is out to crush the...

I am trying to collect a few Paul Kingyon calls. I am documenting the history of Paul's work and would like to have few to reference and photograph. Also, I would like to have a few for my collection. If you have an old Paul Kingyon, working or not! Cracked, electrical taped ok, and would be...

We are still chasing ducks as well but I have a few repairs to do and several calls to get out so my bench is a bit busy. Also got it in my head that I want to figure out a goose flute. Keeps me sane I guess.

Thanks Rich! BTW, I got your message, I will call you over the weekend. Just about to head to Maine and trying to get packed up.

They usually have there big show in January. Does anyone know what the dates are for this year?

We used to use them on scoters and old squaw all of the time. When we were kids we would ride the beach looking for wash up floats, paint them black and call it good. We also used black clorox jubs. Both worked very well.

Hey Rich, I would be glad to help get you started. 401-369-0646 is the best way to reach me. BTW, my son is looking for Super Black Eagle and I am looking for a Belgum Browing in 12 ga. If you hear of anything please give me a call?

Yes, as I am learning, Paul Kingyon was by all accounts a great American and a great human being. This is one of the facrtors that drives me to commemorate his work. I only wish that I had known about him before he passed away. I would have loved to have been able to spend some time with him. I...

I think I finally figured out the picture sizing thing. Here are some of my recent Paul Kingyon style calls.

I was the same way as a kid, hey wait a minute, I am still that way. Drives my wife nuts some times. Particularly if all three of our sons are home. Four duck calls in on house! I would love to hear Pauls tape. I have been looking to buy one for some time now. They are hard to find. If you ever...

I am thinking that I need to move to the west coast. Long Island hasn't seen shooting like that in twenty years or more. We are innundated with black duck right now and we are only allowed one per day. No pintail, no widgeon, a few mallards, and worst of all, no broadbill. We used to have an...

Beautiful collection! I didn't realize that Paul had "dealers". I always wondered how his work got so spread out, even before the world wide web. Thanks for showing that great picture!

I have made a few, spacer and all. I have never seen one with a metal spacer, only a piece of mylar. I agree that when done right these calls are almost impossible to over blow and they don't stick because of the very small surface contact area. The moisture can't create any surface tension. If...

Steve, I wasn't knocking anyone that uses store bought parts. I appologize if it came off that way. We have used echo inserts as well and my son still does from time to time. Some of the local boys really like the acrylic products and sounds. I have become a bit of a purist, not because I think...

I am with Paul on the totally hand made part. I am not knocking anyone that uses store bought inserts or tone assemblies but I really like to make everything myself. The fun of it is in mastering the art form. I build my calls from the ground up but do not glue the guts. This way I can usually...

Anyone out there using a Paul Kingyon call? My middle son Ryan and I have been making duck calls for a while now. Mostly a hobby. We make them for friends and family as well as a few of the local duck hunters. Recently a friend asked me to copy a Paul Kingyon. It seems that he had been using...

I shoot lots of Gadwall up near Calgary but not many around here. Maybe one or two and they never look that good. Nice bird! Tasty too! How do you cook the bufflehead? Tim

Just like loosing a kid in my book. Sorry for your loss. Tim

My son and I went out on the bay this morning hoping to see a few black duck and mallards, which we did. The big surprise was that the hoodies showed up in bunches. The most I have ever seen around here. We had groups of two to twenty buzzing us for the first two hours. They sure are sporty...
