Tool
As a tool, a duck call is like a traditional whistle made to emulate the sound of a duck. In old times, a duck call was a very simple woodwind instrument. It had a barrel, a sounding board and a reed. Hunters would grunt into the call while saying "hut", "quit" or "ut". With the improvement of calls and calling techniques the best callers do not use their voice to perform their techniques.
