can calls
 
what kind of results have you gotten from using a can call(estrous bleat)? Also when on stand how often do you use it and what time of year? I hunt in northern wisconsin and have been afraid to use it before november.

RE: can calls
 
I have shot a couple nice deer using them. Just depends what kind of mood they are in. I shot a eight last year that came into the doe bleat. If I see a deer and it don't seem to be coming my way, I will bleat once. Then just watch it to see how it reacts. This year I had a small buck feeding about50 yrds out. I used the grunt and it just kept feeing and drifting my way. It was getting dark fast, so I hit the doe bleat and it was gonebefore the bleatsound stopped.:)I never use it when the deer in looking in my direction.I use the doe bleat in early season. When the rut hit I use estrous and some times just the bleat. Just don't want to over use them.

I had a doe and faww come into it a few times but never close enough. I also had a 6 come running into to it in November. He was small but he came within 10 feet of my stand. I will use it again this year. I think i used it every half hour or so.

The largest buck I have shot responded to the Primos Can one chilly November morning...

They work well and if they don't respond (come toward you) I've never had a deer spoked by one.

The non typical I killed (15yrds) this past Nov in Pa responded to my Primos "Can". I have had rather good success withit over all. Sounds very real!;)

RE: can calls
 
Ive never had the thing work for me. I hafta say though, when I know a deer is going to pass my stand, I don't make any calls. When I see them out of range and they do not look like they will pass my stand, I either grunt or use the can. Ive had the grunt work, but the can never has for me. Too many people say they work though, so I won't give up on it.

I only use the Can during the rut.
