PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE PUT A LOOP AROUND THE STOPPER ON THAT MINT CALL. It can't be replaced.

I will, I just put the loop on the Raggio call this season. I will do that this weekend for you and me. The RNT insert has never fell out. Thx.

Not to distract from the thread but there are/were call makers that did not include a lanyard groove for the insert. None of the Hambones, Dick Stewarts, Puddle Duck or Howard Harlan calls I own have a groove for a lanyard loop for the insert. Hell, I've got the 1st call off the production line of a molded Howard Harlan call that didn't have a lanyard groove for the call barrel. You should have seen the look on his face when I pointed that out. About half of the Buck Gardner RNT calls I have (I have a lot) have a lanyard groove for the insert.

Rich-N-Tone and Echo both had early calls with no groove on the stopper.

I put a loop on my RNT for you and me. I have never lost a insert in 57 years. I have quit hunting with few because I was afraid I might lose it. Mainly old Reelfoot metal reed calls.

I've never lost one, but I've sure seen a bunch lost by others. The fact it can't be replaced just makes it a no brainer.
