At the Texas Trophy Hunters Association Extravaganza in Fort Worth, the sounds of duck calls permeated the room.
The Texas Ducks Unlimited Duck Calling Contest, including the sanctioned Texas State Duck Calling Championship, took place at the show.
“It was kind of an impromptu venue that came up at the last minute,” said DU’s Director of Fundraising and Volunteer Relations Mike Wilson. “It turned out it was the perfect place to have a calling contest. We look forward to returning to Fort Worth next year.”
As at any duck calling contest, some of the vendors grumbled while listening to the contestants warm up for the contest. But once the actual contest began at the seminar stage, no complaints were heard.
