Steven Rinella’s Jake Brake

Using a combo-cut reed, this call achieves the raspy sounds of an old hen while also retaining the ability to soft-talk. This call has been the easiest for Steve to master and has become his absolute go-to. It’s sure to give you more confidence with a mouth call as well. Volume level is medium.

Janis Putelis’ Latvian Eagle

Janis’ friend and turkey whisperer, Guy Zuck, introduced him to the “chunk-cut reed.” It allows you to get loud and raspy with the overhanging reed but also make a very clean note with the opposite side of the call when you need it. Janis often uses this call as a locator to make extremely loud cuts and yelps. Thicker latex creates a longer lasting, sturdier call that stands up to many high volume calling sequences. Volume level is medium to loud.

MeatEater’s Loud and Clear

The hybrid V-cut design of this call is very user friendly, producing medium-volume raspy sounds with ease. The perfect tone and note quality of this diaphragm rounds out the MeatEater collection, covering all the bases. Volume level is medium.

The Black Bat diaphragm call features an easy to control batwing cut. This call produces mild rasp yelps when played to either side. When played down the middle the rasp picks up and the call can mimic an older hen.
