RE: Deer Vocalizations, The Roar/Growl Phenomenon
The time I heard it this year was when 2 bucks were chasing a doe and the larger of the two "growled" and then proceded to about kill the smaller one.
The only time I would use this type of call is before rattling. I believe the two combined work well. But, like I posted earlier, I think the two new calls sound terrible and I make the sounds with my Tru Talker.
