Default Anyone try "the great big can"

I bought one to try out in case I see a bruiser that isn't coming
to me and want to try a long shot to bring him in. I was out on Sat. and was seeing alot of little bucks running around chasing does. Then I see a very nice 2.5 8 point and he comes directly to my tree, within 10 yards. I didn't even pick up the bow as he isn't what I am looking for. After he harrassed a doe for awhile they moved off a ways and were milling around. I thought I would try "the can" to get his reaction. I turned it over twice and within 10 seconds that buck let out the shortest but loudest gruntI have ever heard in my life. It actually startled me and made me jump, that is how loud it was. He did not come back to me but obviously was responding vocally. Has anyone used one and had it bring a good buck to them? I have two more days to hunt this rut and need to know if I should put "the can" in my fanny pack or throw it in the closet with all the other gadgets I have, like the "fighting purr" turkey call that never did a lick for me in many, manytries.
