The Primos High Roller 838 delivers authentic mallard drake, pintail, teal, and widgeon vocalizations that consistently draw waterfowl within range. This polycarbonate whistle call produces the high-pitched sounds that complement standard duck calls, filling gaps in traditional calling sequences that often leave hunters silent during critical moments.
What Makes This Different
Unlike single-species calls that limit versatility, the High Roller 838 reproduces four distinct duck species' vocalizations through precise reed configuration and airflow design. The polycarbonate construction withstands temperature extremes from -20°F to 120°F without cracking or warping. Traditional wooden calls absorb moisture and change pitch, while this synthetic design maintains consistent tone regardless of humidity levels.
Key Features
- Reproduces mallard drake, pintail, teal, and widgeon whistle sounds
- Durable green polycarbonate construction resists weather damage
- Compact 4-inch length fits easily in pocket or lanyard

Field performance centers on the call's ability to produce sharp, penetrating whistles that carry over long distances in windy conditions. Hunters report effective range exceeding 200 yards in open water scenarios. The call excels during late-season hunts when educated birds respond better to subtle whistle sequences than aggressive quacking. Multiple species capability eliminates the need to carry separate calls for different duck types.
