I need a new call lanyard, what do you all use?

[mike kuhns]

Hello, I’m packing for a business trip to my old stomping grounds in Iowa, (with a little hunting on the side) and found that my old call lanyard is falling apart. I’m looking for recommendations on a good American made lanyard with 3-4 double drops for barrel and insert. Preferably something not real encumbering like some I’ve seen. I kinda hate putting hundreds of dollars on a crappy Chinese call lanyard that might just drop one in the drink while in the marsh.
Thanks for any input you have!

Reach out to P Gaudet Michael on Facebook. He's out of new orleans. Young fella who makes them. My buddy seems happy with his.

I make my own. Not that hard to do. Some good videos on the YouTube. Can find a pattern you like and follow. And you get the benefit of a lot more color selection when ordering from somewhere like Bored Paracord or Paracord Planet

Made mine in an evening while watching Star Trek Re-Runs

I make my own. Always seems I make one and then a youngin needs/wants one and I just rip the calls and bands off and hand it over. My current one I’ve had for a few years now. No takers on the current color combo and I’m ok with that. If you do the paracord idea, get yourself one of these, I can crank out a lanyard in an hour or less at this point.

Current lanyard, not current calls. Even made a thin one with very thin paracord for the pigeon bands. It doubles as the training lanyard for my pooch as all it has is a dog whistle on it.
