Strut10 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 This is another 3-call diaphragm call set I picked up this past week. Here's my take: The Checkmate: This is a 3-reed call with the Checkmate cut (one fairly big V-cut and one slit). It has a high, clear yelp with a good rasp at the finish. It also has a high, clear cluck. The Checkmate is very easy to cutt with. But it is kind of high pitched to my ear. It's very easy to purr on and makes a decent, but raspy, kee-kee. The Cutter Magnum: This 4-reed cutter call has been around as long as I've been hunting turkeys. It is one of the very first diaphragms I used as a kid. It hasn't been around that long for nothing. It produces, deep and raspy yelps and clucks.It will, surprisingly, make a decent purr. As the name would imply, it makes super cutts (and flydown cackles) and it is easy to get precise air control. The Jagged Edge: You want rasp?? The Jagged Edge has rasp!!! This could be the best all-around call I've bought in years. It is a 3-reed call with the Jagged Edge cut (top reed looks like a 3-toothed sawblade). It gives super raspy clucks and yelps. The cutts are absolutely fantastic and it will purr quite well. It also has a very good kee-kee. It is unusual to find a diaphragm that excels at everything. But incredibly precise air control comes easily with this call and it's got it all. Retail for this 3-call pack was $11.99 where I got it. In my opinion, the Jagged Edge is worth the money all by itself. I would rate this call pack as a very good buy for the money!!
