Contact call....that's all the can is anyway.. it's a bleat that rises then falls in pitch...you can imitate the "can" with any grunt tube that adjust to doe bleats....and fawn bleats as well.

Does, I find are more difficult to call than are bucks but I've had great success callin bucks.

I use "The Can". I've gotten better responses from does than bucks. Especially in the early season.

question :

I've used the can before, worked quite well on a fawn after I had shot mom. But if I were to just "use" it blindly when I'm on stand, any recommendations on when, how often, etc...

thanx

i would use a fawn distress call seems to work good for me one year i had 4 does come running from 3 directions all within 1 to 2 minutes of eachother. I was hoping for a buck to be following a doe but no luck.

I too have used the fawn distress call with amazing results. I recall watching a mature doe feed on the opposite side of the field 100 + yards from my stand. It was getting dark and figured I had nothing to lose, so I hit a fawn distress tube call. That doe was under my tree in less than 2 minutes, coming in almost like she was on a string. I arrowed her at 17 yards. I've found it to work best in the early season, but personally have not had buck activity associated with the call.

Fawn distress sometimes works great, sometimes not at all. It will bring in the coyotes though so be ready!!

Brings in yotes and wolves. I was surrounded by about 9 yotes one evening about 5 minutes after i used the fawn call.

yeah teh coyotes are a down side of "the can" i like the fawn can because i can get all the does in the area to come running, but i have had times were a couple coyotes came running in too... i have fun at that point....

i watched a yote walk past my stand with a pheasant in its mouth.. i was mad.. because i was gonna go pheasant hunting the next day! [:@]

just be more carefull with the can use it when you know the does are around and just a couple times on the can and leave it be for a little while... then again. i haventhad much luck with the doe bleet can on bucks though.. so i stick with rattleing...
