Any luck with calls?

RE: Any luck with calls?
I have had several small bucks come in to the can call this year but had my best success with the Primos Buck Roar. I took my ten pointer last week about 10 minutes after blind calling with the Buck Roar and called in a few other bucks in the days before.

Last Monday and Tuesday, I rattled and had buck after buck come in. All in all, I rattled approximately 10 times and saw bucks within 5 minutes of 8 of those rattling sequences. A few sequences brought a few bucks. Mostly 1.5 year olds, but a few shooters. The buck I ended up getting came in 5 times. Yes, 5 times.

I've had a TON of response from calling. Last week alone I had a 4 point come in and I can called it and it turned and walk to 10 yards. The next day I had a 7 point come about 50 yards out, I can called it, no response. Grunted at him and he jumped and turned and trotted into about 8 yards. A few weeks prior to that I rattled in 4 different bucks on one day from one spot. I've had tons of response from rattling this year as well.
Oh, and yesterday I rattled and had a little 4 point come in. I let him walk by and then decided I'd see if I could call him back. I got the grunt out, gave two soft grunts, and he turned around and walked back in to around 15 yards. Up until this year I wasnt sure that calls worked, but this year has definitely changed my mind.

Grunted in a nice eight this morning. He came in on a rope till about 60 yards and then got nervous since he didn't see anything. I usually have pretty good success with the grunt at the right time of year but the can doesn't seem to produce for me for some reason.

Greg, Friday out i Ogle county I had some success with calls. In the morning I had a 2 small 8pts a 4pt come in to rattling and grunting this happened about 7:30am. At 8am I had a big 8pt probably 3 1/2 yr old come in 10min after rattling and grunting. He saw my decoy and started walking away so I grunted at him with the buck roar and theat turned him towards the decoy with the hair on his back bristling up. I stopped him and clipped a branch and hit him in the leg,I lookeda long time but no luck. Hopefully it wasn't a lethal hit.
Friday at 3pm I saw a nice tall 8pt 130-140 class at about 120 yards, I rattled and he came on a string to 60yds and he froze looking for the bucks fighting. I grunted with the buck roar and that made him jump the fence and give me a 40yd shot which he jumped the string. I've never seen a deer drop as much as he did.

Over the years I have had bucks looking for the source of the call. I actually had 3 bucks show up this year after a few bleats and a series of roars and grunts. It was cool for sure to see 3 bucks show up at one time.
