RE: What do you do when...?
The first deer I called in, a young button, came running in full charge and stopped on a dime right below my stand before i could even put the call down - talk about unprepared. It was all I could do to not laugh out loud and send him running back. I don't know if it was really that funny or I was just so happy that the grunt call worked but I got a kick out of it.
Now I have my bow ready and in hand when I call. Also, I tie the rattle bag or antlers to the tree so I can reach it with only 1 hand and let them go quickly when needed.
