RE: How to stop a deer?
ORIGINAL: NY Bowhunter Just wondering what you guys do to stop a deer. |
RE: How to stop a deer?
Depends on the situation. If "baaa" doesn't work, brush guard on the front of my pickup at 50 mph always stops em (just joking).

RE: How to stop a deer?
Nothing. I don't want to put a deer on red alert. I've seen too many in TV videos spook rather than stop. I watched a gal today trying to stop one just wading in a river at 13 yards. She hit the dang thing right in front of the hind quarter. Was it because the deer wouldn't stop. Heck NO, she made an absolutely terrible shot. At 13 yards follow and shoot or lead and shoot. Concentrate on the shot, not deer calling. 20 yards and under I shoot. Beyond that I wait..... or shoot.:D I have no idea how many deer I've shot walking. They never jump. I think because they're not concentrating on noises and they're making their own.

I keep a tazer in my back pocket. That usually works. |
RE: How to stop a deer?
ORIGINAL: GMMAT I've only tried it, twice. It worked both times.....but I've also realized this. I watch.....and wait.....and wait.....for the deer to stop on its own. By the time I realize it isn't going to.....I make a noise like they do on "TV". By this time....I've learned the deer are already out of my effective range.....and the best thing I could have done was keep my "maaaaaing" mouth shut and not alert the deer to my presence. Never say never.....but I think it'll be a long time before I do this, again. |
RE: How to stop a deer?
As many have said BAAA will put the stop on them.Got to tell a story.
I was on a meat hunt by the house.Wife only gave me three Bullets for my Muzzleloader and I had two Tags. Along just after light,here comes a Doe hauling Tail.BAAA,she stops I pull up and miss.I'm reloading,she is walking towards me.I pull up and kill her. She is laying there kicking.Here comes another Doe hauling Tail,BAAA she stops.All I can see is her Head and she wasn't moving.So I shoot her in the Head. Here is a Pic http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v59/oneshot/000_0842tw.jpg big rockpile |

RE: How to stop a deer?
"maaaama" will stop a doe every time!
Seriously, when bucks are chasing, you do whatever you have to. Last year on a big Illinois buck I had at ten yards I tried a soft mouth grunt with no effect.A loud mouth grunt at fifteen had the same results.Just before he got into some cover at twenty yards I yelled as loud as I could and he stopped. |
