For when you're not on the "X"

Founded in 1999 by World Goose Calling Champion of Champions John Taylor, Bay Country Calls was born from a passion for waterfowling and a relentless pursuit of perfection. After years of hands-on trial and refinement, the team introduced their flagship short reed goose call, "The Shore Thing," setting a new standard in the industry.

With its unmatched range, volume, and finesse, "The Shore Thing" became more than a call—it sparked a movement. Team Shore Thing was formed, built on tradition, discipline, and a shared belief that true success in the field comes from gear that performs when it counts.

For over two decades, Bay Country Calls has combined the rich heritage of Maryland’s Eastern Shore with modern innovation, earning a reputation as one of the world’s premier call makers. Known not only for champion-level performance but also for integrity, sportsmanship, and craftsmanship, we continue to push the boundaries of what a call can do—both in the field and on the stage.

Fits to size. Good quality. Glad I purchased

excellent easy running call

Great goose call! This is my first "nice" goose call I've purchased after being recommended it from my brother. Tested it out in my driveway as soon as I picked it up from my mailbox. Got messages from my neighbors that they think a goose is lost around our homes after 5 minutes. I let them know I was testing out a new call. My wife also came from inside the house and told me she thought a goose was stuck in our backyard. If its good enough to fool my wife and neighbors, I'm sure it'll be good enough to fool some honkers into my spread this season!

Good rasp. Good sound. Well made. Sound is between a j frame and cutdown makes it versatile. I appreciate the extra reeds and cork I’ll try and getting a little higher pitch on the highball. Thanks!

Best sounding call I’ve used to date

The reeds are good !

This call is sweet !

Premium shirt featuring outstanding design !

Ordered the kill gene and winter harvest. Man these guys know what they’re doing! Absolutely love the calls! Had to tune It just a little bit out the box to my liking but when I got it wow they rip. Can’t wait to kill some geese with these this year! Very great customer service as well. Talked on The phone with me before they sent me the calls throwing in extra reeds, o rings and a t shirt! Don’t have anything bad to say about them! - Zach from Iowa!

Reeds appear to be good quality. These should keep me up and running for a while!

Great sounding call out of the book ready to hunt.

Great goose call for all around, able to hit high and low extremely easy and everywhere in between. Super goosey with minimal effort!

The Kill Gene call with the "DOGS" gut system delivers impressive range, loud responsiveness, and quick speed. Its lifelike realism makes it sound almost alive—by far the best call I own.

I’ve had allot of calls over the years, and my biggest disappointment is not trying Bay Country calls years ago.
