I NEVER hunt without a grunt and snort wheeze call. That being said, I rarely like to blind call. There is just far to great of a chance that ANY mature deer will circle downwind of the callers location and ruin your hunt. Instead, I prefer to call only to deer I can see and READ so I know exactly what more I need to do to bring 'em in close. This time of the season you just never know a bucks reaction to calling but it can change by the hour. Good luck and good huntin'
