RE: What is your #1 BEST DEER CALL
A simple, short duration - tending grunt.
All bucks know that sound - and that they should be looking for THE DOE when they hear it.
If I have no deer around - I give one or two (not more) short grunts - every 15 minutes. If I'm trying to "turn" a buck I see - then I wait till its facing AWAY from me - and give a short grunt. You do not want the deer to pinpoint where you are - only the general direction. If you grunt too much - you WILL get busted.
