World's Championship Duck Calling Contest 2005

[drake30100]

There are such things as meat and live duck calling contests, which are supposed to should like a "real duck". This video, to me, is music to my ears. Duck calling is an art form that takes years to master and I guess all you guys hating on how he's blowing on the call just don't know the first thing to duck calling. Sorry guys. Just because you suck doesn't mean everyone else has to suck.

[Dukcaller1]

If you feel it's stupid and pointless... Then there is no doubt you can't operate a call well... Most all of these guys who compete can use the call to "sound like a duck". Have any of you ever really sit and listened to live ducks?? I'm going with no. There are technically only two sounds these guys use that a duck cannot make. The hail and rolling feed. I'll do you a favor and break it down for you. Hail= meant to be heard at long distances. Rolling feed= meant to sound like multiple(and I me

[stewiehax]

Some of you people are fckin idiots. It's not meant to sound anything like a damn duck. John Stephens can outcall each and every one of you morons in the duck hole.

[daniel2002666]

world championship duck calling contest....says it in the name (duck calling) you make those long sounds trying to call a duck in its gonna go the other way, this is stupid and pointless

[thekygooseman]

Oh and great job John

[thekygooseman]

If you knew anything about duck calling competitions you would know that this mainstreet style is to show that your pushing the call to it's limits. If you want to see a great live duck competition then look up Kent Cullums win at the world live duck competition.

[TheWaterfowler99]

What the fuck is the point of this? Have any of you ever heard a duck sound like that? HELL NO! no doubt the dude can run the hell out of that call but its retarted how it sounds. Have a competition that is based on HOW A REAL DUCK SOUNDS!

[greenheads11]

He is the best there is! No doubt he should of one champion of champions this year. I watched it and he hsd no doubt the best routine!

[T0mLinSon21]

and that would be John Stephens with the RNT staff, Jim Ronquest is even more of a hoss

[swalthal]

This Guy is a BEAST..

[muddyfootwaterfowl]

@swalthal 

[playaninja1]

Yall are all so damn serious about this lol chill out, they're just pickin at ya

[Dukcaller1]

Y'all are right a duck wouldn't place in a calling contest!!!!..........

...........because he can't blow a duck call, gees ppl it's about call control!

[rydyco]

all of these duck call compititions are bullshit they sound like shit

[TTPPM23]

@rydyco well why are you watching them? Listen to a meat routine if you want a more "ducky" tone. Come out and compete and get your a** handed to you if your interested

[Dukcaller1]

Champion of Champions..2010!! Hide and Watch!!.....all these "winners" running their mouth just wish they could do that!! Haha

[WebFootUnit]

a duck wouldnt even place in a calling competition

[kencan98]

@WebFootUnit haha. It's sad but true. This stuff sounds nothing like a duck. Turkey calling comps are much better.

[WebFootUnit]

@kencan98 Yeah i agree them turkey comps are bad ass to watch.

[Peyton265]

you stupid little flashy duck callers could not call in 1 duck in a real hunt

[turdf12]

@Peyton265 fuck you

[turdf12]

@Peyton265 Your the biggest fucking dumbass int eh fucking world stupidddd asshole. FUCK YOu

[decoysinker]

im better

[Peyton265]

there aint one of yall who could actually call in a real duck yall just sit there and make those calls scream

[muddyfootwaterfowl]

Man it is unreal to see what you so called duck hunters have to say about comp callers,my question to you what do you do in the off season to keep the sport and the art of duck calling alive? Well I say not sh....t. But guys like us run duck calls to the limit and I mean we run-em.All that talk about what ducks will and will not do if they hear what we do on stage WELL THIS AINT DUCK HUNTING HERE ITS THE X-GAMES OF DUCK CALLING BOYS...........AND YOU BESSTA RESPECT THAT.

[BrunoTimoteo]

what the name of this song?

[ilFiOkOeD]

nigguh sound like a copy machine

[greensidenavy18]

hey blake09 if you knew what the hell was going on you'd understand this isnt about pulling ducks in, its about showing consistency and control of a call through a cadence top to bottom. Watch this guy blow a call in the timber and you'll cream your pants.

[Xtrema2A391]

This is competition calling guys...it's all about controlling your call and nobody does it better than John Stephens. Watch some RNTV shows...he can call in the blind too boys!

[Bighairynipnips09]

I agree with blake09 too, Im not expert duck caller and Im not going to pretend to be, but I know the only time I or anybody I know use a highball is when there landin where I dont want them too, or there kinda high.

[Drusymom]

i agree with BLAKE090909

[rickjames45631]

no duck would come to that, that's why this is a competition, to see who has the most control over their call, not who is most likely to call a duck. It's obvious that you are entirely oblivious to this though.

[jemilholland2985]

steve, if i had to guess i'd say john stephens is probably blowin an RNT of some sort. considering the fact that he is the president of the company haha

[steveboomhour]

Hey Blake09...dick heads like you should keep your "nobrainer" comments to themselves! Are you one of these guys that goes through life, pretending to know shit, then open your mouth and everyone, on "utube" see you for the dick you really are??...It's called a highball call, its to call in ducks that are way off, its to draw their attention your way dick head!.........wow, go and show off to your 1 or 2 friends how stupid you are, wait, they already know dickhead!

[pirranah]

i use my cell phone to call them....

[tramjam863]

A warden will burn your ass for that

[steveboomhour]

what call is he using?

[duckman0812]

@steveboomhour MVP

[kylekrazy]

Damn straight im a duck killing machine!!!

[MarshgrassMan89]

of course you've never heard a duck sound like that its a contest routine

[UtahFarmBoy]

great job

[kylekrazy]

i've never heard a duck do that before. As Phil robertson once said "In duck hunting there are world champion duck killers and world champion duck callers. I'm a duck killer" I agree with Phil i'm a duck killer!!

[armont2222]

krazykarl i'm betting you are a certified duck killing machine with that ole duck commander!

[tealdropper]

We never call like this in the UK. You'd get kicked out of the club!

[TOWNSLEY51]

do you really have to call like this to kill ducks?

[HunterAddiction]

No Never!

[jumpthenoob]

you dont even have to call...

[dntpokdabear]

To high on the the high on the high ball.  Depends on the situation...

[jdizogg36]

why does he go so high?

[miles5outdoorpro]

Thats awesome.

[monicasaul]

great shit!

[mjb777]

Wow ...And the Gold Duck goes to ... !!!!!

[dingomingo7]

i think john set the standards with this routine

[Arkduckhunter94]

damn i can call preety good but not that good..nice!

[duckcaller85]

That is a great feeding chuckle. WOW thats OSM

[rideordie022001]

thats a damn good feedin call

[Arkduckhunter94]

i dont see how in the fuck yall do the feedin call..

[Duckshoota11]

wow. so impressive

[moodybluesgurl]

my cousin is the only woman to have won the championship, I grew up in Stuttgart.

[jakebrake05]

damn, i ran out of breath just watchin it.

[sheffield800]

If you don't appreciate the video nobody forces you to watch it. Anybody with any sense can see that John can run a duck call.

[Rambo347]

Can somebody explain to me why John stops after his first set of hail calls and what exactly he says

[dx1187]

Warming up the call....."I'm ready"

[dingomingo7]

actually he doesnt say anything if you say any thing u get DQd he gives a nod meaning he's ready then someone says caller number 7 witch is wat number he is

[squirrelkiller247]

that doesnt sound like a duck!! and hes the world champion yeh right

[Rambo347]

your really dumb, Main street competitions have little to do with sounding like a duck. Its about who is the best at using a duck call and controlling the air put through it from the bottom end all the way to the top.

[JBG58]

Ol johnny was doing the best "Im not a crook" pose I ever saw. Geez youd think he never one anything before by lookin at him. Great routine though.

[hookedonquack09]

RNT MVP very custom to his specs I assume. Collier Calls if you dont beleive in that kind of calling, then I suggest that you might not want to have a video promoting a comp call just my 2 cents. Very hipicritical, no hard feelings just a thought. Have a good one.

[duckman0812]

anyone know what kinda call hes usin

[Duckhunter86]

he has been working at RNT since he was 13 dip Sh it. what do you think. MVP

[duckman0812]

hey fuck u i didnt kno

[speckcaller08]

yes that is an MVP ... but because hes been their a while has nothing to do with it ....dip shit

[kentschaef21]

Well no shit its's called competition calling.....it's just a fun way to work on your calling technique and a good way to earn some bregging rights.....comeing from a custome call maker i would have thought you would have been all over the duck calling comps...

[xXFallXOutXFanXx]

Yes I know what competition calling is. All i am saying is i want people to rememmber the way the guys done it 65yrs ago. It was not all about the bragging rights, or money but hunting. I dont want to take anything away from RNT, ECHO and all the other world camps Its just not for me.

[xXFallXOutXFanXx]

I am a custom call maker. I think that people should think about what they call, calling contests! These guys act like a bunch of idiots. That stuff doesn't sound anything like real ducks. Call me crazy! I have been hunting ducks for along time. Not once have I ever heard a mallard hen call like that. If you want to call like that go to hollywood! Quit embarrassing the real duck hunters.

CollierCalls

[stewpeezy72]

ok that's what a duck calling competition sounds like. It's about well rounded skills on a duck call. It's about the caller showing that he can do every thing that that call is capable of. from the highest to the lowest end of the spectrum. That was a fantastic routine by the way! In the blind calling is considered "meat calling" And there are meat calling competitions ...You should learn a little more if your trying to run a waterfowl business. not to mention representing the sport, and the art

[xXFallXOutXFanXx]

OK I know what duck calling competitions sound like, I know there are meat calling contests, and not to mention I know what the sport and the art is. I also know how to call like that. Do you? All that is to make you want to by there calls, thats fine! Good way to get them sold. I dont want to take anything away from the guys at rnt, echo and all the other world camps. Its just not for me.

[johnboysmh]

Theres to different types of calling. Contest and Hutning or field hunting. Duck calling contests is not supose to sound like "real ducks" This video is what duck calling xomps are like

[lottafishin]

OK and yes betts is the best comp call there is.

[lottafishin]

I know who JOHN STEPHENS is in fact ive talked to JOHN STEPHENS i never said JOHN STEPHENS was a bad guy or bad caller JOHN STEPHENS is a great caller u would have top be dumb not to know that. respect...he is just another person who blows a duck call u make him sound like a god but he isnt he is just a great duck caller. oh and yeah i did know his name so i guess tht makes me an idiot.

[duckslayer111]

Primos all the way!!!

[lottafishin]

dude i didnt say betts was the best or r-n-t wasnt a good call in fact r-n-t is a rather good call but the only thing i was saying is that trey crawford is in my opinion the best comp caller ever..

[kylegearyultimatered]

Man did you just refer to John Stephens as "that guy" if you cant look and see who that was then you have no business even post a reply.(It even says his name at the end.) And if in fact you did know his name and you still referred to him as "that guy" then you my friend are an idiot. Trey Crawford is really good and I will give you that but love John or hate em you gotta respect the man more than that...

[grizzlypower08]

HE IS MY HERO!

[lottafishin]

this guy is great but trey crawford is the best duck caller of all times... see this guy ownes a call company trey just blows a betts game call the best there is.

[grizzlypower08]

FUCK BETTS CALLLSSSS

RICH-N-TONE! Its what we do. bettchhh!

[Duckshoota11]

Feeding call sounds like several ducks! Amazing! Hes a very talented caller.

[Live2FlyLow]

My God that sure sounds like a car alarm going off.

[grizzlypower08]

he is got the best feeder call

[rcortez35]

john is the best comp caller around it went down is in the books and a boyhood dream came true 3 -time world champ hope to see you on the contest trail judging my routin

[toopeanuts98]

is ur guys routine 90 sec also

[SuzukiDude199xxx]

field calling is totally different than competition calling.

[K2Wizzy]

The point of championship duck calling is to show how much control a contestant has over a call. "Stage Calling" as this is refered to will scare every duck in your state plum out of it, if you tried this in the field. "Meat Calling" is trying to mimic the sounds of ducks in the field. This is stage calling. And if u try this in the field you will not have a duck come within 500 yards of you all day in the blind.

[duckman399]

amazing

[moof556]

Hehe i kno thats just for competition and it takes skill, but if he did that outside he'd get attacked by a flock of wild chainsaws :D

[miles5outdoorpro]

Sounds really good!

[jmtmatt]

I am an avid duck hunter, but I havent really followed any duck calling competition or dont know much about it. Is the highball the very first call they do (sounds like an overkill of a hail call)?

[K2Wizzy]

its called a 90 note highball. Most a real duck can do is 11. And that is one pissed off duck.

[pittboss19]

its not called a 90 note highball. most highballs max out at like 20-30 note but theres no doubt people do more than 30 but if you could do 90 i would be EXTREMELY impressed

[duhost2706]

Actually you people are all retarded... the high pitched "rediculous" calling hes doing is what two drakes would do in a competition to get the girls attention and scare away his competitor. and yeah that chuck is amazing...

[kidrodelo5]

alright ass hole, do it in the field and see if you bring in the ducks then

[boudreaux76]

I'm assuming the name you have of "DUHOST" is not DU as in Ducks Unlimited....because if it is you should be ashamed of yourself. The "high pitched" call you are referring to is a greeting call from a mallard HEN not a DRAKE. DRAKES WHISTLE...

[kidrodelo5]

rickjames is correct, although the high ball he was doing may sound somewhat excessive for the field, and it is, the contest just shows the control these guys have over their calls which, is very impressive. A lot of work goes into that, a lot of work.

[duckkilla48]

THAT WILL SCARE THE DUCKS AWAY!!!

[duckassasin34]

u dont use it in the field just for comp

[Redneckbakkie]

how can he be the champion duck caller if he didn't even call any ducks in? that feeding chuckle was bad ass though!

[byroncampbell0471]

There is a world of diffrence between calling on the stage and calling in the feilds and in the timber these guys that talk down dont even know what kinda of work that these guys put into these contests.

[rickjames45631]

efpd2463..........The duck calling contests are not set up to mimic an actual hunt! It is to test the control a person has on the call. Not to actually get a duck to land on the stage during the contest.

[drsandstone]

It amazes me how people talk "oh man you cant call ducks with this"..... No shit you cant is he standing in the woods no hes on stage dumbasses... I know John and butch on a personal level and I would put john up against anyone in the world in the woods too!! Its amazing .... him and Jim (2006 World Champ) its amazing they can call in the woods better than anyone I have ever seen so get over it!!!!

[efpd2463]

No duck would ever respond to that ridiculous high-balling. What a joke. How about the contests reflect real duck sounds, not pure entertainment?

I HUNT THE FLYWAYS.

[PlatteRiversDecoy]

Two completly different type of calling between contest and actual hunting. Anybody with a half of a brain knows that. Common sense says you couldn't call in ducks with that style of calling, but the only thing he has to fool is the judges.

Cory

[waterinwoods]

John is the man.

[kylegearyultimatered]

Dude John Fuckin rocks what an unbelievable fuckin feedin chuckle, god that was so fuckin quick, I am guessing that was the RnT MVP but i dont know... RnT fuckin rocks

[waterinwoods]

It is a MVP.

[Squeeb28]

That feed call is sicks as hell wish i could do it that well.

[duckassasin34]

FUCK MAN i cna only dream to be that good. but he looks like hes about to die

[suckasickfart]

yah the calling is good but teh HIGH ball sounds fucked NICE THOUGH

[penasoccer]

first year goose and duck hunter here hunted many other things but just getting into it anyone have any INSTRUCTIONAL duck and goose callings. A how to and any information on choosing several different calls you prefer thanks

[Spencer5100]

The first caller is John Stephens, he is the President of RNT. Johnny is the man and by far the best caller in the world

[dragracing93]

dude, good calling. To that guy who said you couldnt call a duck with this, your right but he isnt trying to call ducks. He is calling judges.

[matt22489]

you can say what you want about these guys, but everyone knows that real duck calling and competition calling are completely different. I can call real ducks all day long but i would never make it in a competition like that.

[cmcnabb09]

i love to duck hunt and consider myself a very good duck and goose caller and i would never shame myself by entering these competitions. listen to these men and listen to a duck. does not sound remotely the same and if you tried to call a flock of ducks by calling like these guys, you would never come close to bringing them down

[olemiss46]

that first guy is the owner of R-n-T calls

[feew1988]

the guy blowing the call does not own RNT Butch Richenback owns RNT, he is blowing a RNT call though

[pittboss19]

stuttgarts the duck capital of the world bro. world duck is there every year.

[tresckow]

i didnt know there was a stuttgart in the united states. thats funny.
