I usually just say "hey" not loud but in my normal talking voice. If the deer is close I say it softer, if the deer is far I say it a little louder but never loud enough to spook, butjust to get the deer to stop. It actuallyworks very good. I am at full draw when I say it.

I once had to yell to stop a 7 pointer. My buddy heard me and he was 300 yards away!

I have never had one run or spook from me when I grunt; Maaaaaaahh is all I do. did it three times on a buck last bow season.each time he stopped he would be behind a bush.I would grunt and he would take one more step. the third time he was in the opwn,(broken rib)

Theystop after they get nailed with my arrow.. In all of my situations I havent had to do anything to stop one. I would probably do a soft mouth grunt.

I like Arthur P'smethod = Lasso

Actually - I never stop them and prefer the walking shot as I like them relaxed when I let an arrow fly and so far (crossing my fingers) I have never had a deer go more than 70-80 yards.....

I do a soft mouth grunt and then get louder as necessary. Ihave found that when bucks are chasing you need to get pretty loud to stop them. If it's nice and still and buck is moving in slow I will either make a kissing noise or I will grunt soft.
