I've called to every buck I've seen (either playing with him/experimenting or attemptingto get him to come closer) since 10/22.

NOT ONE has committed to coming in. I've had every reaction from stopping to see where the call was coming from....then moving on.....to one buck taking off on a full trot in the other direction. Some ignored it (and I was close enough for them to hear it).

I still have my grunt/bleat call with me each hunt. Sometimes I wonder "why", though.
