QB Trifecta Pot Call

[palmettoswamp]

For you guys that have this call, is the pot made out of wood, plastic, ceramic? Anyone have any luck this past spring with this call?

[FlHunter23]

Im pretty sure its plastic. I know its not wood. I had some pretty good luck driving the old lady carzy if that counts??

No gobblers out for me but I was gabbing with a hen keeping her occupied for over a half an hour with it last Spring.
I like the ceramic part the best.

I killed a nice bird in Pa with it in the Spring. There is a pic in the Trophy Room on the main page. It has some mods to it though, see if you can spot it:)

The pot is made of the same plastic as the Triple Threat.

Not to be a hater but the Triple Threat was the one call I refused to "demo" at shows when I was on staff. I just thought it was about the worst sounding call I'd ever played. I haven't tried the new model and doubt I will unless one mysteriously finds its way into my mailbox.

I was just never able to get that quality turkey sound out of one and I know my way around a pot call pretty well.

And on the other hand, I've ran production calls that will blow the pants off some custom calls....I can see how it would be difficult to get good sound when the pot has three different surfaces...it has to effect the sound of the entire call and the sweet spot....I have never run one of these and was just curious to see how folks liked them

I am glad that this has come up because I am going to friction calls this spring and now I have a better idea of what to stay away from.
Thanks for the TIP! ;)

Paul,

I know what you are saying, and know that you aren't bashing


In all honesty, the Triple Threat isn't one of my favorites. It is capable of killing birds, but the Plexi takes more maintenence than I like in the field. The aluminum and slate sound pretty good, but it takes strikers other than the carbon and plexi provided.

The Trifecta, is indeed a step up the ladder. The Cordy surface is a pleasure, and the aluminum is harder as it is anodized. It comes with a wood striker, but carbon strikers are available through Bob, if anyone desires one.

I agree with you Paul...I also will always play a call before I lay down the hard earned cash....Also, one call might sound good to me and someone else can say that call is garbage..all personal preference IMO. Some folks like rasp, clear, highball rasp, nasal, ect...I have heard hens yelp in the swamp that I swore were some hunter attempting his first yelp on a wingbone call and 15 mins later a hen walks by(sounded more like someone sucking on the end of a straw).....

I have a handful of production calls (mostly QB that were given to me by a friend) and I think most are capable of calling turkeys to the effective range for a beak full of #6 BB's:D

Sam let me play his Trifecta pot call this morning while in the woods....I will go on the record to state that it is leaps and bounds over the Triple Threat. The cordy and slate sounded good....did not have my prefered stirker to run the aluminum section. I was running a custom purpleheart striker on it.

I once owned a Triple Threat. I think I gave it away. It was a slick marketing idea.

[FlHunter23]

My first pot call. I wont ever forget the gobblers i had hammering to it one morning in marion oaks, and the hen that walked in a while later. To bad the swamp birds arent as suceseptable.

[palmettoswamp]

The cuts are good and snappy on that cordy surface...
