An HS Strut Lil Deuce double glass is a dang good call for the money.

for cheap if you bought a primos ol betsy, primos purple haze, a 777 striker and a couple of their mouth calls you'd be in business for $70 or so. Even cheaper if you look around

The striker that comes with purple haze is junk, toss it and use the 777 and its a whole different call

If you wanted to splurge a little, the hen sanity with frictionite could be played by anyone and comes with the upgraded striker already

for best quality at a big retailer I would think wood haven though

Primo's does a great job with their calls. I've hunted with a Cane Creek Pro Custom slate in the mahogany pot that's called a bunch of birds to the gun.

My favorite retail box calls:

Primos HeartBreaker.  Great cuts/yelps, and and Kee-kee...  Does not pur great, but this particular call seems to drum up a gobble when nothing else will, and seems to be particularly irritating to hens.  Mine is NOT for sale. ;D

Lynch World Champion...  Darned good turkey call, and as good (or better) than any custom calls I have.  Yelps/cutts/purs.  I do have one that will not play on one side though?  Should have sent it back when I got it, as I understand their customer service is good.

Pittman Game Calls (Preston's 2-Face) is a great call.  My daughter took it over from me.  Yelps, cutts, and really purrs well.


Diaphragms

WoodHaven (hands down the best retail diaphragm call for me)
Zink (distant second)
H.S. Stut (third choice).  Love their diaphragm wallet though!
Did I do that?

Fly fishermen are born honest, but they get over it.

Canebrake makes some really nice calls as well. I've got one of their glass calls and several diaphragms and like all of them.

I have an older primos heartbreaker and it sounds really nice. I met a guy one day walking in as I was walking out. I guess he heard my last ditch efforts to get a gobble as I made my way to the truck. He was surprised that it was Primos box. Granted it was my second season hunting turkey, so I had no idea what I was doing.
