What grunt patterns have you guys found to work the best? Long, short, pauses... and does the pattern change when the rut kicks in?

Usually early season a fawn bleat works for doe, a little later in the season, (pre-rut) a few short grunts may bring in a buck or doe. When the rut is kicking I use what is called a tending grunt quite often. If you have ever heard a buck chasing a doe grunting every step you will know what I'm talking about. The grunt almost every step.
