Alex Reed

I'm Alex Reed, I'm 18 and I live in Central Illinois. I'm a safe, respectable outdoorsman that loves to hunt and fish, but hunting waterfowl is my life, It's all I think about 24/7. I eat, sleep, and breathe hunting ducks and geese, I try to hunt everyday during the season that I can and during the off season I perfect my skills and learn new ones. I love everything about waterfowl hunting, from standing waist deep in water hunting woodies in the flooded timber to hunkering down in a pit calling in giant canadas. I'm a member of Ducks Unlimited and a committee member on Bartonvilles Chapter, I volunteer as much time as I can to help preserve wetlands across America for tomorows generation of duck hunters. I look forward to representing Fowl Obsession in Central Illinois and help the company grow and expand. I'm honored to know Mark and be apart of the team!

Matt Gallup

My name is Matt Gallup and I currently live in Macomb, IL. I am 22 years old and have been duck and goose hunting since a very young age. My passion for waterfowl hunting started when my dad Ray took me out duck hunting in a flooded cornfield and I haven’t gotten rid of my obsession since. When season starts, I mainly hunt in the Macomb area but also travel north to the Sugar Grove, IL area as well. I am very big into bowhunting deer and every kind of fishing.
I met Mark at the Peoria Deer and Turkey Classic and learned all about Fowl Obsession. Hands down the best calls I have heard and used at a great price that can’t be beat. I look forward to the upcoming season and cant wait to use these calls in the field.

Tony Carey

I have been hunting for the past 55 years. I have had the pleasure of growing up and hunting in Grafton, Illinois with my father, grandfather, son and now my grandson. Waterfowl hunting is in my blood. I am honored to have been able to enjoy this sport for so many years and I truly enjoy spending the day in the blind with my son and grandson.

Team Fowl Obsession Pat Freeman

Pat Freeman

I have hunted ducks on Public Areas for the last 52 years. We have better decoys, better clothes and better equipment all around including the duck than years ago. The call of my choice for years was one modified to fit me but that changed when I blew a Fowl Obsession Call. This is the ONLY call that I get the tones, volume and anything I want out of it. This call will make the Drakes leave the hens and put them in your face. Don’t take my word for it. Try it for yourself.

Team Fowl Obsession Hal Stewart

Hal Stewart

My name is Hal Stewart, I'm 38 years old. I've been Waterfowl Hunting for about 28 years. My father, Hal, started my obsession with duck hunting the Mississippi River areas. He showed me how to hunt and shoot at a young age. I ENJOY ALL ASPECTS of the hunt from working on the blind, the many friends I have made, and teaching the younger kids how to hunt. I hunt 80 to 100 days a year. All the memories I've made makes it all worth it. I would like to thank: Mark Carey for making great sounding goose AND duck calls, and rest of my hunting buddies who brave the weather elements with me, and my wife Alisa for putting up with my hunting passion for the last 16 years.

Team Fowl Obsession Rhett Simpson

Rhett Simpson

My name is Rhett Simpson. I was born and raised on a farm in Randolph County IL. As a child my father took me hunting for deer and small game. My interest in Waterfowl began at the age of 12 when my cousin Mark took me Goose Hunting for the first time. I can remember that first hunt as if it were yesterday. At that moment I knew Waterfowl Hunting would be a big part of my life. I have been hunting Ducks and Geese for 17 years now and every season that passes my passion grows stronger. My first Goose Call was a modified OLT-A50. I blew a variety of Flute Calls for 8 years and then switched to a Short Reed. I've owned a Foiles, Grounds, Big Guy Keller, and many other calls and my Fowl Obsession Cranked Up call is my favorite. It's the easiest to blow, takes the least amount of air, and is the goosiest call I have ever blown. I enjoy a good hunt with a well trained retriever. I currently have two labs Ammo & Drake who enjoy fetching up the Geese we kill. I've had the opportunity to hunt with Mark Carey for the past two seasons. I enjoy listening to him call and it has led me to change my calling methods. God willing their will be many more productive seasons in the future. See you in the field.

Team Fowl Obsession Mark Wilson

Mark Wilson

My name is Mark Wilson.  My passion with Waterfowl started at the age of 12, when some good friends of mine, the late Ted Valentine and his son Ken, took me on a trip to his Goose Club in Reynoldsville, IL, near Union County Refuge.  From that moment on (35 years ago), I was hooked.  To be in the company of good friends, watching flights of Ducks and Geese work into the call, land in the decoys, and all of the excitement that goes with each hunt, is truly my obsession. I mainly hunt in Southwestern Illinois, along the Mississippi and Kaskaskia Rivers.  I started calling with an Olt A50.  Then years later, moved on to the modified Olt A50's, and learned a lot on creating the various sounds of the Canada Goose on Flute Calls.  I competed in 5 contests and placed in Top 5 on 3 occasions.  I met Mark Carey two years ago, and I can honestly say that this guy is the most down to earth person you will ever meet.  His obsession is helping others enjoy the sport of Duck and Goose Hunting.  His calls have the most realistic Goose and Duck tones than anything I have heard before.  I am proud and honored to represent Fowl Obsession Calls.  For all of those hunters and fishermen out there, make it a point to take someone new each year, especially a child, on hunting or fishing excursion.  Introduce them to what our natural resources have to offer and they will be rewarded with a lifetime of enjoyment in the outdoors.

Norby Schindler

My name is Norby Schindler. I started goose hunting with my dad on a small pond near my hometown of Jacksonville, IL. At only 10, I realized my obsession with goose hunting. I would spend hours practicing goose calling and thinking about waterfowl throughout junior high and high school. I was building, brushing, and hunting my own blinds at age 16. I have realized my hobby has become an obsession and I hunt every day of every goose season. My days revolve around goose hunting and scouting to see where my next limit will come from.

Brady Rau

My name is Brady Rau. I have been waterfowl hunting now for 15 years. I started out hunting local farm fields with friends. We then started a hunting club in Ware, Illinois and I hunted there for 10 years with great success. When I had my first child it was hard for me to travel that far to hunt. Mark Carey invited me to hunt with him at his place in Grafton, Illinois till I could find a spot closer to home. I found a farm field to lease in Southern Illinois and was given the opportunity to build and design my own waterfowl pit with Mark. I noticed while hunting with Mark that his calls sounded so much better than mine. That’s when he introduced me to Fowl Obsession calls. To this day I still blow Fowl Obsession calls. They are high quality and sound so natural. Mark and I still hunt together and we have had more success than ever.

Chris “THE HITMAN” Derhake

My name is Chris Derhake and I’m from Quincy, IL. I’ve been hunting waterfowl and anything else that moves since about the age of nine. Waterfowl consumes just about every aspect of my life. I’ve been competition Goose Calling for several years and have had several top five finishes. I enjoy helping anyone who is interested in learning to call and have helped all ages and experience levels improve their calling. I hunt mainly in the Mississippi River Bottoms, but chase birds whenever and wherever I have the opportunity.
I am on the crew for several companies, but Fowl Obsession Duck and Goose Calls is my flag ship. I never represent a product or company that I don’t truly believe in! Fowl Obsession calls and our philosophy are among the best I have ever seen. NO FRILLS! Just a superior product at a superior price, offered and backed by excellent customer service.
I have known Mark Carey for many years. Much of what I know I have learned from him as well as a few other top waterfowlers whom I’ve had the pleasure of calling my friends. The Art of Waterfowl Hunting is a great passion and obsession of mine that I will continue to learn and pass on for many generations to come.

My name is Bart Freeman and I have been lucky enough to have been brought up and surrounded by family and friends that all share the same obsession which is waterfowl hunting. My father started taking me hunting at a very young age as his father did and we have been hooked ever since. I have been blessed with a great wife and two wonderful sons that I know will carry this tradition on. I have known Mark and his family for many years as our fathers brought us up in the field as they still share this passion together as hunting partners today. Saying that Fowl Obsession Calls are NOT just another flashy simple addition to your lanyard it’s a quality choice. These calls produce the most realistic sounds that will bring you the results you are looking for in the field.

Team Fowl Obsession - Craig Sondker

Craig Sondker


Hello my name is Craig Sondker of Grafton Illinois. As of 2011 I
have hunted waterfowl for 42 years on the rivers and lakes of the
Midwest from Wisconsin to Arkansas and Tennessee to Kansas. My style
of preferred hunting has always been on public hunting areas where the
power of a good call is the deciding factor on whether a bird is in
hand or not. Never have I blown calls with so much duck and goose in
them as the line of Fowl Obsession Calls. From the long hail calls on
the open river to the soft chatter and short calls in the green timber
no call have I ever blown better than the Belly Up.
As for Mark and AJ (Gunner) I have hunted with and along side many
people in the marsh and never have I seen more dedicated hunters than
them. And it shows in the success of their blinds as well as the
blinds hunting around them. Also in the dedication they put into
making every call to perfection. It's an honor to have them as
friends in the marsh.
Good Luck and remember a safe hunt is always a good hunt!

Jason Fulkerson

My name is Jason Fulkerson, and I live in Bonnie, IL right next to
Rend Lake. I have mostly hunted the Rend Subs for 19 years. I enjoy
all aspects of Waterfowling, but what I enjoy the most is watching the
birds react to your call. I like the challenge of trying to fool 'em.
Fowl Obsession Calls only make it that much easier. The Honker Havoc
and Cranked Up goose calls are super easy to blow great goose sounds.
Great goose sounds along with a very competitive price makes these
calls a winner. Good Huntin and Stay Safe !

Will Smith

I am Will Smith from St. Paul MN; I am married with three kids. My father started taking me duck hunting when I was five years old, that’s when my obsession started. I have not missed a waterfowl opener with him since; and he is still my favorite hunting partner. My father has taught me how to hunt ducks, Canada geese and snow geese. When the season arrives you can find me in several states hunting ducks and geese, I start in Minnesota, go to North Dakota and usually end up in Kansas at the end of the season, hitting a couple other states along the way. The last two seasons I have been bringing my daughter & son with me, the youngest one is too young. I really enjoy showing and teaching my children about water fowling. My other interest includes anything with the family, archery hunting for deer and turkey, largemouth bass fishing, and ice fishing. I spend between sixty to eighty days a year hunting, with ninety percent of that time chasing ducks and geese! My favorite fowl to hunt is Canada geese

McKade Marshall

My name is Mckade Marshall I am 17 years old and I live in Brigham
City, Utah. I started going duck and goose hunting with my dad and
brother when I was six years old, I got my first goose call when I was 11 and now I have moved to a short reed and learned so much more about calling. I love everything about waterfowl especially calling waterfowl. During the off season I spend my time hunting other animals, riding my dirt bike, camping and fishing. I love to meet new people to share and learn new tips and techniques about hunting. I got introduced to Fowl Obsession Calls on an intenet forum, after looking them up I contacted Mark and he set me up with some calls and I loved them. They are easy to operate and sound very realistic.

My name is Tanner Ontis. I am 14 years old. My dad, Jim has always been a very avid duck hunter. He started taking me hunting when I was about 3 years old. I have always enjoyed going and now that I am getting older I can be more active with it as far as helping build blinds and blowing calls. There have even been times when we go that I am the only caller in the blind. My dad gave me my first call when I was one! I've upgraded my calls to Fowl Obsession calls now and I like how they are easy to call with, and how natural they sound.

Cole Schaub

I'm Cole Schaub and I live in Central Indiana. I grew up being taught about the outdoors and deer hunting from my dad and my uncle but was never introduced to waterfowl hunting until I was about 14. Being 21 now you could definitely say I am hooked on quack. I still have not gotten the short reed goose call down, but I can, however, blow a flute. I really hope after 6 years of blowing a flute, Mark and the guys can get me on a short reed. Although my passion is still ducks I love seeing the big honkers fly into my spread. I am attending college now and working part-time, so I'm pretty busy. But, all my free time goes into the outdoors; whether it's training my 7 month old pup, or trying to figure out new ways to call in birds. I am always trying to learn new things and meet new people. I am extremely excited about being a part of Fowl Obsession and blowing the calls. I met Mark at the Peoria show this year and ended up buying the fully loaded duck call. I Love it!

Gabe Hepke

My name is Gabe Hepke and I have been obsessed with waterfowl hunting since I was a small child. I was introduced to waterfowl hunting by my dad and grandpa. The first time I picked up a call was when I was 5 years old; 18 years later I still get the same excitement calling to a group of ducks or geese and watching them work. I was born and raised in East Central Iowa and still live here today. I try and hunt 60+ days out of the season here in Iowa. Outside of waterfowl hunting I enjoy taking my Vizsla’s out upland bird hunting. I have a fiancé and a 3 year old son who loves to go out hunting with dad and grandpa. Fowl Obsession calls are great sounding and calls you can count on to work when you need them.
