A recent press release by Zink Game Calls highlights their line of polycarbonate duck calls, designed to be durable and easy to use — and more affordable than their original calls.
One nice thing about polycarbonate is its weatherproofness; damp weather or a dunk in the drink will be powerless to change its dimensions, unlike a call with a wooden body. Polycarbonate is also mighty tough and can resist breakage, which is why safety glasses are made of the stuff. All in all, I don’t see how you can go wrong with polycarbonate duck calls.
Four different calls are featured in the press release, which follows:
Grand Prairie, TX – Zink polycarbonate calls feature the same calling qualities and proven designs as the originals, in a budget-friendly format. Each comes equipped with an easy-blow sound system, so even novice callers can produce undeniably realistic sounds. Polycarb calls are available in a Power Pak with instructional DVDs or sold individually.
ATM GREEN MACHINE™ POLYCARB
The ATM Green Machine™ Polycarb, like its acrylic namesake, is a loud double reed call producing a clean sound through its range and includes a radically improved bottom-end feed chuckle. This innovative call features Zink’s Z-cut, no-stick tone channel – a ground-breaking design that permits a vast range of tones while virtually eliminating reed lock. Cash in on the mallard bounty this fall with the field-proven ATM Green Machine. Bank on the budget-friendly polycarb version getting the job done.

NOTHING BUT GREEN™ POLYCARB
In duck hunting, if green is your favorite color, Zink’s Nothing But Green™ Polycarb single-reed offers outstanding versatility and undeniably realistic mallard hen sounds. The polycarbonate version modeled after the original Nothing But Green™ acrylic call produces the natural sounds you’ve come to expect from Zink, but with the hunter’s budget in mind. The NBG captures the power of multiple hen mallards, unleashed in an irresistible cone of sound. Zink’s Z-cut, no-stick tone channel produces a wide range of tones while virtually eliminating stuck reeds – a common problem in lesser calls – and comes equipped with an easy-blow sound system. Even novice callers produce outstanding results with the Nothing But Green Polycarb.
