Wench style duck calls have the patented Tone Ridges and Tuning Ditches on the sounding board which keep the reeds from sticking or freezing while giving the call its raspy highs and lows. The patented reed relocation system lets you take the call apart for cleaning and put it back together correctly every time.The internal parts are molded from graphite, the ideal sound conductor, giving the Wench its unique pitch and range of tones.
