3 more tickets punched this weekend and a great day for contest calling overall. It’s always great to see kids who have a passion for calling and parents who support that passion!

Leaving Florida with an appreciation for chairman like Adam Pierce who put on great events for our callers. The judges were top notch, the prizes were incredible and the contests themselves were extremely well ran!

What are some contests you look forward to going to each year and which ones should we check out?

Pat Peacock of Arkansas is a trailblazer in the world of competitive duck calling! She made history as the only woman to earn the title of Duck Calling World Champion and to also be named Champion of Champions, two of the sport’s highest honors.

Known for her exceptional skill, precision, and authenticity, Peacock broke barriers in a traditionally male dominated field and set a standard of excellence that continues to inspire callers today.

Her achievements represent both mastery of the craft and a lasting legacy in waterfowl heritage.
