RE: types of calls to use
I would grunt to stop a buck if need be,and I would grunt to a buck that was out of range and not headed my way.If you are not already aware of this you don't call to an animal that is naturally moving in the direction you want tham to go,only if they start to head in another direction.From a volume perspective you would also work your way up the volume ladder.Soft is usually the way to go.
