Close-in calling is a skill and equipment pairing that separates confident decoy spreads from missed opportunities. When the birds are cautious or working the edge of a field, you need a call that offers a range of realistic tones, instant responsiveness, and durable construction you can trust in wet conditions.

ECHO CALLS TIMBER delivers on those demands. Echo Acrylic Calls are handsomely designed with a polished stainless band for beauty and strength, and the construction is tailored for hard-hitting field work. Built by Echo Calls (model Various), this high-performance call produces a wide range of tones—from loud hail calls that carry across wind to soft raspy quacks for finishing and coaxing hesitant birds. Priced at $124.19, it’s positioned for serious callers who want premium materials and predictable performance. Shop this product

Design and performance breakdown

The acrylic construction gives ECHO CALLS TIMBER an inherently bright, projecting voice that answers well on hail and aboard windier days. The polished stainless band adds impact resistance at the mouthpiece joint and prevents cracking when used with gloves or when dropped. Its voicing is deliberately versatile: you can move from a loud hail call to lower, raspy notes that sell close-in scenarios and encourage commitment.

Tactical use and field tips

Use this call as your finishing tool. Start with moderate hail sequences to draw attention, then switch quickly into softer raspy quacks to sell the “local” conversation. The call’s design favors short, convincing phrases—perfect when working decoys within 40 yards and needing ducks to commit to the spread. Because there is no specified caliber or additional subcategory, focus on technique: throat control, head placement, and tempo will unlock the Timber’s full range.

For hunters equipping a dedicated close-in setup, adding ECHO CALLS TIMBER to your kit complements decoy placement and concealment strategies. View product details and pricing
