Because no two deer sound alike, most calls, provided they are in the right range, will sound like a deer. The trick is so use them as deer do, which is gnerally short.AS O look at the specs for each call in the book, what strikes me is that most times they are less than a seocnd in length. So, use it for as short a period as you can, but do not end it abruptly, which is an indication that something is wrong. I rely heavily on a doe social contact call because it does not spook deer, and will attract most bucks), which is slightly longer than other adult calls, because she wants to be heard, and to be found. Make it farily loud and about 1 second in length - after you have blown it softly a time of two, so you don't scare, or overly alert any nearby deer you do not see.

If you see one of the better known call mkers on YouTube, teaching you how to blow a call, it sholuld be okay.

God bless,
