Q: Are electronic game calls legal?
A: Cass Creek game calls are legal in many states. Outside of the USA, game calling restrictions are quite lenient. As with other hunting techniques, states and specific zones within those states have particular restrictions across the nation. Even isolated regions within states zones have certain hunting requirements. Game laws change on a yearly basis, with each state controlling the regulations of their counties, based on game populations and many other factors. Cass Creek advises that you check your local game laws for all legal and proper hunting
methods.

Q: Who developed the call?
A: The call was invented by hunters, for hunters. A group of world class sportsmen, highly skilled shooters, and champion callers, product designers, graphic designers, and electrical engineers all added their input to create this unique call series.

Q: When was the call invented?
A: Cass Creek Calls have been on the drawing board for over 10 years. The unique features of the call set it apart from other calls. The patent was filed in the spring of 2002, having both a national and international patent pending.

Q: Are the calls real?
A: Most of Cass Creek's game calls with the exception of waterfowl are actual animal sounds of game species recorded in the wild. Cass Creek has contracted with world renown video photographers and exclusively purchased the rights to their recordings. The calls are safeguarded by special techniques to prevent them from being illegally copied electronically. Those calls which are man-made were produced by world champion game callers specifically for Cass Creek International.

Q: Why are there only 5 calls on each unit?
A: Most game species make many vocalizations. Cass Creek has isolated and selected 5 of the most popular sounds that lure game in close. Those 5 specific calls were determined by a group of world class hunters, world champion game callers, and nationally syndicated television wildlife video photographers. To have a great number of calls on the unit would only complicate the process for the sportsman as to making the right call at the right time. Calling made easy is one of our goals. More call options would also increase the retail cost of each unit.

Q: Are Cass Creek game calls a quality item?
A: Cass Creek has designed these electronic game calls with state-of-the-art production equipment. The product was invented by hunters, for hunters as a useful addition to the sportsman's equipment list. Quality checks- testing occurs throughout the production process. Some of the nation's best electronic engineers and product manufacturers, international designers, and established production facilities are involved in bringing this product to the market.

Q: Are there other calls being developed by Cass Creek?
A: Cass Creek is currently in the process of producing Series II of the game call units. For the more advanced hunter, this will offer additional calls, effective in more situations. New game calls for different species are also in development along with other non-game wildlife. Look for these calls coming soon to your favorite retailer.

Q: Where are the calls made?
A: Calls are designed in the United States; sounds are recorded and cleaned, and master chips are produced in the U.S. Graphics, logos, photographs, electronic files, and packaging designs are done in the U.S. The product is inspected by a U.S. group. Our warehouse is in the U.S. As with most electronic equipment, cameras etc., production is contracted overseas to keep consumer costs down.

Q: Are the Game Calls waterproof?
A: Cass Creek game calls are water resistant and not totally waterproof. Although moisture is one of the enemies of electronics, our design and production methods have taken into account the product's outdoor use.

Q: Are the calls shock proof?
A: Our game calls have been designed to withstand a standard level of impact resistance. Prior to shipment, they go through a test quality sampling process by a separate quality agency. We have further tested them at Cass Creek and found the product to function perfectly even after extreme measures of impact. However, as with any electronic device, units should be handled carefully and not subjected to abuse.

Q: Is using a game call ethical?
A: Today's sportsmen have many tool and equipment options available to help them be successful afield. Advancements in camouflage clothing, firearms, ammunitions and loads, and a plethora of products are on the market today. Some hunters place personal limits on their equipment by hunting with primitive weapons, homemade bows and arrows. Others have limited allowance of outdoor recreation time and opt to take full advantage of all equipment accessories to help them be successful hunters. The choice to use game calls is just one other option available to the hunter. Manual game calls, decoys, and other forms of attracting game have been in existence for thousands of years. By no means does using actual recordings of live wild game guarantee the sportsman will succeed in bagging game. Like with all other equipment, it must be used under the right conditions, at the right time, and at the right volume. Other factors come into play in the total calling process. These include the hunter's personal woodsmanship, the state and receptiveness of the game quarry, the hunter's marksmanship, camouflage, scent, population of game in the given area, his game calling set up, and a good bit of luck.

Q: Is it complicated to use?
A: Cass Creek has made our calling device extremely user friendly. Easy infield use was our design goal. With the excitement and stress of game within close proximity of the caller, a multitask electronic calling device is simply not practical. Even most children can operate our device making it easy for them to practice with their manual game calls.

Q: Why not just purchase a CD or Cassette tape with calls?
A: They're good; we're not knocking them. Anything legal that makes you a better hunter is positive, but most of these are recordings of game callers at some competition. They don't usually name the call or isolate it so you can practice it. Cass Creek has instant playback. A player and speaker system would have to be purchased and are probably not shock or water resistant. Cass Creek game calls conveniently fits in your pocket and is lightweight. "Do I want to hunt, or do I want to lug and set up a cumbersome calling system?"

Q: How do you tell your hunting companion, without insulting him, that his calling with his manual call is poor and is actually scaring game away?
A: Making the wrong call at the wrong time will drive game away. New hunters often over call at inappropriate times. A Cass Creek call will teach them the correct sound, rhythm, pitch, number of notes and duration of the call.
