Founder J. A. “Joe” Kolter

           J. A. Kolter was born in Minnesota, grew up in Wisconsin and has lived in Iowa for the past 43 years.
    He was introduced to duck hunting in the 60’s and has been hooked ever since.   He began making custom 
    waterfowl calls in his garage back in 1979.   He is now retired and had worked primarily as a self employed 
    contractor and certified building inspector.   He enjoys making furniture and wood fishing plugs, cooking 
    and gardening, but mostly like to spend his time fishing and hunting.
      
         J. A. Kolter spent over 32 years working with hundreds of different wood species to find the true sound 
    performer hardwoods he uses to date.   His custom made calls are crafted one at a time using the finest 
    properly seasoned hardwoods and given a high quality finish.   His calls are turned freely on the lathe to 
    form their basic model design and can be identified by model and year markings on the recessed part of the 
    tone insert.   They are then engraved either on the band or barrel with his personal handwritten signature.

The J. A. Kolter Philosophy

          It is the intent of J. A. Kolter to fit the call to the hunter who desires to successfully work birds.
   Therefore, each call is hand tuned to its full level of performance and own individual characteristics.
   Every effort is made NOT to duplicate calls by the use of production equipment.   He believes that every 
   duck or goose sounds different as well as each hunter who uses waterfowl calls.   More than anything he 
   feels that hunter education in call care and performance use while in the blind or on the marsh is critical to 
   overall hunting success.
