RE: Using a deer call in WI gun season
The rut doesn't end completely for quite some time, it continues as late as late December or January. The does that don't get breed during the first "rut" come back into estress later in the season, the rest of the breading sessions are not as intense but bucks are always looking for that last hot doe. I take the grunt tube out because if I see that buck out of range, a grunt may be all that's needed to bring him in. I also take a ratteling bag, I'll throw anything out because you never know what may work to bring him in. Another great reason to have a grunt tube with you is if you have a deer coming in that seems a little spooked, a doe grunt may reasure it that it's safe. When hunting I'd keep my bag of tricks open, you never know what may work. Good luck everyone!
