Any cheap call you can blow properly is better than a pricey one you can't. Flute calls at cabelas work great also. Canada geese aren't fussy. Getting them to finish takes more work. I use a cheap call to get them interested. Then I use a very easy to blow grounds wooden Real Thang to entice them to come in for a landing.. but that's just me.

Ten gauge never required btw.

Life is too short to have a 'hate on' for so many things or people. Isn't it?
