Kuttat Elk Reed Clearwater Series
Choose options
Smooth. Natural. Proven.
The Kuttat Elk Reed was built around one of the most trusted latex profiles elk hunters have relied on for decades—yellow latex known for its smooth feel, forgiving control, and natural sound quality.
By pairing that historically proven latex with an extremely low horizontal stretch, the Kuttat becomes one of the softest and easiest-running reeds in the Clearwater Series—requiring less effort while maintaining excellent control across a wide range of elk vocalizations.
The result is a reed that produces realistic nasal cow sounds, smooth calf talk, and controlled bugles with ease. Run it soft when elk are close and conditions call for finesse—or lean into it when you need more volume and emotion without losing realism.
This is the kind of reed that quickly becomes a permanent part of your pack because it simply works in so many situations.
Part of the Clearwater System
Most elk reeds on the market live in a narrow lane—slightly different cuts, slightly different tones, but ultimately built around the same idea. The Clearwater Series was designed differently.
Elk communication changes constantly depending on mood, pressure, distance, terrain, herd dynamics, and emotion. That’s why every reed in the Clearwater lineup is purpose-built to fill a specific role inside a complete calling system.
The Kuttat lives in the versatility lane.
Soft enough for realistic close encounters. Capable enough to push volume when needed. Easy enough for everyday use.

An amazing product. Had the bulls going crazy. Would highly recommend
Seems nice. I would have liked to see some instructions come with it. As an elk hunter beginner, some instructions would have been greatly appreciated. Still trying to figure it out.
The Miner reeds take little to no pressure to make those quiet cow and calf sounds to draw that weary bull in the last few yards. This is one of my favorite reeds!
Durability and repeatability don't often go hand in hand with reeds; they do here. These are the best sounding reeds I have ever used and they simply last longer than anything. That's a big deal for a guy who's a dedicated elk hunter, competitor, and coworker- annoyer!
I purchased this set before season and loved how they all sounded and felt then used it for a hard month straight of elk hunting. Putting the calls and holder through the elements and to the test. Unfortunately within the first week the Lolo call, came apart from using the distress calf sound so often and taking it in and out of the holder. I do think the holder itself could use some improvement in design, but I reached out to the Slayer calls team to at least let them know what had happened and give them my feedback and they ended up replacing my whole set for free no questions asked. Very incredible customer care and the proper way to do business that is not found these days. They make some amazing products and I have had nothing but a great experience with them!
I'd build custom wooden bugle tubes and the slayer reads in the Clearwater series have proved to be a great combination with my custom tubes.
Love the LoLo for cow and calf sounds...definitely the one I'm using when that bull is closing the distance I may need to stop him for a shot.
I got the "you pick" 5 pack of diaphragm calls. They arrived very quickly and I found they are the easiest calls I have ever had to get working. Each has a distinctive sound. I'm looking forward to practicing with them and using them this fall.
My favorite so far from slayer. Ive tried 2 others
Great all around reed that can do it all. Used the same reed for the entire season last year along with the miner.
They all sound great just got to figure out what one i like the best:)
The calls work good and easy to use
Good sounds
I can’t quite use a mouth reed yet, but of the few that I’ve tried to use, this one has been the easiest for me to be able to get some sound out that is close to what it supposed to sound like
Sounds great can’t wait to use in the mountains.
Sounds amazing and can’t wait to get to the mountains and hopefully Call in a bull with it
Easy to use. Make nice cow calls. Still working it and looking forward to an upcoming hunt
I bought one to enter the contest. I don’t have a misprint, but I’ve found my go-to call. Out of the box it’s the best sounding, easy to use, minimal air, crisp call Ive used. This will be my #1 (probably only) reed I use.
Slayer calls are simply the best reeds on the market! Sound is clean and crisp and the durability is unmatched.
I scooped up the 7 pack to give these reeds a try. These fit my mouth really well and are well made. I screamed back and forth with a bull last year for 2.5 hours before I got him to commit and the reed held strong and continually delivered loud crisp sound. Try the seven pack to see which works best for you. I love the maniac (white), the red and the pink. The others latex stretch/thickness were more difficult for my style calling. Highly recommend the 7 pack to see which is your favorite!!!
Can't say enough about this reed bundle. No matter what you are looking for, this pack has it all. Give you a wide variety of different pitches and sounds where you can constantly change the cadence of your call. Well worth the purchase and I will never head into the elk woods without my Slayer Calls
This is without a doubt my favorite reed of the bunch. Great tone and pitch for both cow calls and bugles! this is my "Everything" go to reed
Great product
I have tried other brands and Slayer is the best one I have found. They simply work best for me.
Possibly my favorite Slayer reed
The 7 pack elk reeds from slayer game calls is amazing!!! They’re so easy to use and the responses will leave you with memories to last a lifetime. From day 1 of almost being run over by a giant bull to being surrounded by elk to harvesting an elk providing meat for my family, I’ll be using slayer game calls as long as they’ll keep making them.
Picked up this call at the sportsman's show in Portland Oregon and right out of the package I liked it. Great volume and very crisp bugles. Really liked how the calf calls sound in this call. Fit my mouth without any adjustments, would highly recommend this call !!
I've used reeds for years. They all can very a little. Once I used the Slayer River series, it was definitely apperant there is a difference in the sound. First time hunting with them, I called a bull on second day of rifle season. That never happens where I hunt.
One of the easiest to use reeds I've ever had, great realistic sounds! a must have in your pack! the entire Clearwater lineup is something I'd recommend to anyone wanting to hunt elk!
