gsambray 172 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 So I tried calling when I found some fresh tracks. It was a doe estrus bleet. It definitely got his attention but I think its too early yet cause he wouldn't commit. I sat there and listened to him circle me a few times in the heavy brush. I did get a quick look when he trotted through some raspberry cane. Nose up sniffing the get my scent. No shot available but I still wonder if I had some doe scent if then he would have committed. I also tried a rattle bag in a different spot with no success. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDR 4 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 I was calling every 20-30 mins or so this past weekend. No such luck. Too early if you ask me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Canoehead 69 Report post Posted October 20, 2014 I was using a grunt tube this weekend (set to imitate a young buck). I was blowing every 20 mins after an hour of sitting in silence. I started hearing deer moving soon after I started calling. On the 3rd time I used the grunt a large deer spooked from very close to me. I had no idea it was right there under my nose. Didn't get a good look at but I'm thinking a buck. I guess it lured him in but maybe sounded fake from so close or maybe he saw me. Instantly snorted and took off. I tried some light rattling too the next day but no results. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
