  • Eli, Rod, and Kelly Haydel: For these guys, the waterfowling tradition runs deep and it's a family affair. Haydel's Game Calls was founded by Eli Haydel in 1981, and now Rod Haydel, President, and Kelly Haydel, Vice President, lead the business and tradition forward. Each of these gentlemen are accomplished hunters and callers, and they take great pride in giving back to the hunting industry and their surrounding community.

In addition to his pro staff duties at Big Foot Decoys and Drake Waterfowl, Barnie travels across the US and Canada chasing waterfowl, pheasants, and turkeys.
