RE: The CAN
Like all calls, scents and decoys it can be over used real quick. But I have killed three deer that I owe to the can. Deer were going other direction, gave it the can and deer stopped and came right in. But I have had countless times that they have just looked and walk on!

RE: The CAN
I've tried it for 3 years and havent had a darn thing come to it. And where i hunt theres only one hunter that hunts in the 200 acre radious or whatever and he doesnt use the can either.

RE: The CAN
I used one for 2 years and never had a single deer respond to it. I've pulled in a number of deer with my bleat and grunt calls, but they don't care about the can where I hunt. I threw mine away earlier this season.

RE: The CAN
I have brought in a few does with the can in the past 3 years. I find it works best in conjunction with grunting and wheezing. I wouldn't consider it a must in my arsenal, but I usually carry it with me. Hey, to get the job done right, you need the right tools!

RE: The CAN
I've got this DVD I picked up by Fiduccia (sp?)on calls. He talks about the can and about how many people misuse it.....in that if you turn it slow and give a long loud blat, that's actually an alarm blat and will drive deer away. He says there are several different kind of blats...for example an esterous blat was three short "whiney" blats with about 1 second in between blats and how you should couple that with a tending grunt....he gos though blats and bleats and grunts and blows...etc....
