ABOUT C&S
Founded in 2005, C&S Custom Calls started out as a small hobby and turned into a serious addiction! Handcrafting things has always been a passion of mine. I starting making calls in the late 1990's, mostly fiddling with turkey pot calls, and wingbone calls. My love for calls and calling led me to start making duck and goose calls, which became an instant addicition. Didn't take long and I had more people asking for calls than I could handle so I opened up C&S! The Name is derived from our two founding CEO's, Cheyenne and Shelby, our Golden Retrievers. (They make sure and keep me working hard by laying in the shop all day long!) After 6 years of doing calls as a hobby business and working full time elsewhere, I was finally able to transition over to full time with C&S in August of 2010. I am looking forward to building a great business and an even greater relationship with my clients!
ABOUT OUR CALLS
I take great Pride in building each one of our calls. From a Block of wood to a finished call. I handle every step. I outsource as little as possible to make sure and maintain the highest quality standards. Most of our wood calls come from highly select wood species. Our wood is dry and stable, and most of our wood is often stabilized to make it solid as a rock and impervious to weather. Stabilizing is a costly process but is well worth the beautiful calls we can make by utilizing it. Many people tell me the calls are too nice to hunt with, I can assure you, they are made to hunt with! Our calls are well finished and the craftsmanship is of the highest quality, but they are designed 150% to hunt, and they do it well. We have a huge stock of crazy materials includuding exotic wood species from around the globe, and manmade materials you never thought could be used as a call. We are not limited by production runs, or retail contracts, so we can do anything and everything. Why have the same call everyone else has, when you can have something totally unique, and made just for you.
ABOUT US
My name is Mike Stelzner, and I live with my wife Sarah, our son Bryan, and our two Golden Retrievers Cheyenne and Shelby in the small town of Zumbrota Minnesota. We are about 1 hour south of the Twin Cities. God is at the center of our home and we strive to follow him where he leads us! We do as much as we can to support timber bay outdoor adventures, a youth focused group based out of Northern Minnesota designed to get kids outdoors and build relationships with them. We do several youth hunts each year that are supported by our call and DVD sales. We LOVE Minnesota, and love the hunting and outdoor oppurtunities it has to offer. From Norther Pines to Southern Plains it is a great place to live and be a sportsman! The Shop is always open to you. Feel free to contact me about setting up a time to visit!
