““My brother Jase is Phil’s right hand man in the blind and mine at Duck Commander. He went to seminary school after high school, then worked for the church for a little while, but essentially came straight to work at Duck Commander. He loves ducks as much as Phil does and is the expert when it comes to duck calls. He takes what he does very seriously. He studies ducks and knows how to imitate their exact sounds. He doesn’t settle for Duck Commander calls sounding okay. He wants them to be perfect. He’ll spend the same amount of time tuning a call for a beginner duck caller who doesn’t know what he’s doing as he will for an expert caller who has been hunting for years. Making duck calls is one of his passions, and he just loves doing it. I think he especially likes the camaraderie of all the guys sitting around blowing a little smoke between blowing the duck calls. He doesn’t like the stress of things changing and being different. Sitting in a chair and doing the same thing every day would drive me absolutely crazy, but I think that’s part of what Jase likes about his work.””
