Yes very true maternal instict will bring does to a fawn in distress call. Just blow a fawn distress call and blew it lots, they cry like a baby when they are lost or in trouble. The hardest part is picking a spot to setup and also be aware that the does you call in are on the highest of alert, they expect to find a predator or a deer in troubles so they come in very attentive and on edge.

I think I saw an episode on a primos video once where some young kids were blowing on a fawn distress call like it was a gazoo and hauled in a few does. Just an example that it can be done.

I' ve called in deer while fox hunting, that have come in to see what was going on. Although it can call them in at times, I wouldn' t rely on it as a way of hunting them. Its too inconsistent, and they will be too alert coming in. Set up along trails and try hunting them the more typical ways.
