Not many MN hunters I know have been around enough deer to know when diff calls might work. Its a shame - and congrats on MAKING your biggest buck happen! You can call deer? News to me. |

The hunters of MN have been cheated. Calling deer can be very productive and a lot of fun. It really works like on TV. |

It's crazy how well that works if the stars line up with the right deer at the right time. It's the second time in my 5 years at our place that I've had that happen with the best deer I had a picture of. First one circled downwind and busted me. Yesterday's deer was just mad and sprinted right in without worrying about the wind. |

I honestly have never once had a buck respond positively to a grunt and come to check it out. All I have ever seen is deer go on alert and carry on about business. My sample size is pretty small though.
Rattling, nada. Not a single response.
Calling has done nothing for me. Can calls, grunts, wheezes, etc.

Great buck and story, Ben. Keep up the good work with the kids.
I have practiced some calling by mouth and have had some luck on young deer. A grunt is quite easy, but you do not have the volume of a call. I have tried the snort wheeze, but had no luck.
I have rattled in a few Minnesota bucks, but seldom try any more. I think the grand total is 4. I have had a few deer run away from the rattle without seeing them.
Thick cover (and sometimes during firearms season) a mouth grunt might get a deer to change it's movement so you can get a peak at him.
