RE: Deer Vocalizations, The Roar/Growl Phenomenon
I sat this year more than i ever have in my life.Ive heard about the bucks running after each other on those three magical days out of the year and i alwayse missed them.I didnt this year!During three days i must have seen every buck in the county.They were everywhere!I heard alot of grunting,wheezing,etc.Early in the seasion,i scared alot of deer with a call,so i didnt try it any more,why bother,they came by every 10 minutes.One day as the sun was going down,I heard what sounded like a pig-i would say a bear-but im not too savey about bears.It would go off and there was crashing,snorting wheezing,5 minutes later it went off again.Over and over.Im sure nobody else was in the woods,Im pretty sure they were deer,And im real sure the hair on my neck stood up!That was a long walk back to the truck that night.
