Why did you shoot a button?

RugerM77.270

You can't tell if its a button buck at 60 to 100 yards. I had one under my stand on Saturday and couldn't tell it was a button buck till it was 10 yds from me. When he came out he almost got shot but I didn't want to came out with a 45 pound deer over my shoulder and get laughed at.

Pffft I killed a button two years ago. Still hearing s*#t about it. I thought it was a doe the whole time until I started to dress it out. Talk about a "crying game" moment. [:'(]I was like wtf!!! Now every time I mention hunting around my brother'n law he brings up the "dog" I killed our first hunt together.[:@]

I used mine last yr open day of muzzle loading and had a buck grunt at me a few times but never did come out to play..

Then had a small 3 pointer walk out a week later 10 yards from me in my stand. He just stood for about a minute looking aroundfor a doe but didn't see her so kept on walking in search of love. Going to try mine again this weekend..

I had great luck with the can I bought this year.





Too bad it didn't do anything on all the deer I tried it on. It will help my predator hunting though! These were both in the same spot opening weekend of deer season, a day apart.

I called in two bucks from about 300 yards away with it. I know it sounds crazy but it was a very still morning and they were across a field and I hit that can about 3-4 times. They looked right up at me and made thier way to about 30 yards and then came into the woods and came in behind me. Does it work everytime...no but it worked once and sometimes once is all you need.

A button buck is easily identified if it is alone. Small deer with short faces by themselves are usually young males. A young doe will find other does to follow. A young male that tries that would be run off. Compared to a two year old or older deer its head with be short. Think of the difference between a cow and a calf. The cow has a longer head.

Thumbs down for me. I have had the thing for 3 seasons and had zero success with it. The guy I hunt with swears by the thing. I have often wondered if there is a quality control issue. My grunt tube on the other hand works quite well.
