This session will end the summer classes and students will learn ‘routine calling from the field perspective’; ‘understanding what makes a good caller a good hunter’; ‘why seasonal changes means changing your calling routine to fit the bird’s needs’.

- August - The Zink Calls Pro Staff will choose two people from the calling classes to be their guests on a waterfowl hunt in the 2007-2008 season to hunt geese and try out the new skills they have learned. One student from the Beginners Classes and one student from the Advanced Class will be selected. The students that are chosen must have a valid Maryland hunting license. These individuals will be chosen by the Zink Pro Staff team based on their progress during the four months of the summer classes.

The Zink Pro Staff team members are looking forward to greeting new waterfowl callers and veterans alike.

Goose Calling/Hunting Mini-Clinic

Featuring World Goose Calling Champion of Champions, Sean Mann

Sunday, April 1, Noon to 4:00 p.m.



Hanover, MD – On Sunday, April 1, 2007, World Goose Calling Champion of Champions, Sean Mann will be on-site at the ‘Quack Shack’ in the Hunting Department at Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World, Baltimore, with hands-on demonstrations from noon until 4:00 p.m. One-on-one conversations and a Q&A session are part of the afternoon’s agenda.



Newcomers and veteran goose hunters can learn a few new tricks as far as how-to goose calling, decoys set-up, blind location and call selection. Or, if you have a Sean Mann call that needs a tune-up, bring it along.



In 1985, Sean Mann won the World Goose Calling Championship in Easton, Maryland and the ‘long-call revolution’ began in the world of waterfowling with Sean’s ‘Eastern Shoreman’ goose call. Sean has established Sean Mann Outdoors in Easton, Maryland and provides Championship-style calls to all goose and duck hunters. His Pro Staff and Sales Staff are all top-notch callers and many are World Champions. Names like Kevin Popo, Keith McGowan and Josh Neuwiller are members of the Sean Mann team.
