Whackin and Stackin

idk about yall, but ive seen these babys work miracles..i think my can is the most well spent money of any huntin call ive got..i shot a button buck this past saturday mornin, he blew at somethin about 100 yards away and we hit the can and that bad boy came balls to the wall towards us, stopped and dropped him at 60 yards with a muzzleloader, and i have a cousin who shot a nice buck last year, right after he spooked it, he hit the can and it turned around and came back towards him..

what do yall think? got any good stories with em'?

i used mine on saturday morning and turned two year and a half year old bucks in their tracks.

Bought one when it first came out. I use it almost every time i hunt. I have YET to find anything good about it. It hasnt worked one bit yet.

Works to draw fawns in for me. Other than that it just turns the bucks heads and they continue on the path they were going to begin with..

Carried one for two years after they first came out, never got a single positive response.

I actually called in a little 5 pointer last year with it.After I hit it a few times, I heard something walk right up to my stand (behind my back). When I turned around, I had this five pointer not 10 yards from me staring up right at me. Apparently he was looking for love or something........

It's interesting the differences in the responses to the can. I've seen that if a 1 1/2 year old buck is anywhere in the area, it usually comes running in as mentioned. I figure their momma's run them off and they are hoping it is her or their first love. I have called in a few mature bucks, most were hot and heavy looking for a doe and turned to come straight to me with their heads up looking. I've also tried it when does were directly under my stand to see their reaction and they've just unalarmed looked around to see where the bleat came from and then continued eating. It must sound exactly like a deer not to spook them at that range.

I never go out without my can. I have called in one good doe with it, but it has mostly worked on young deer. This weekend my buddy shot a big doe about a hundred yards from me. After he radioed me and said that her twins were still hanging around I hit the can a few times. Within a min. later he called me back to say that they were coming straight at me. I now have some tasty "veal" in the freezer.

On numerous occasions I've hit the can when deer were around just to see their response. Almost everytime it would cause the does and especially young deer to stay in the area and look around. I've also called back a few deer that were moving away.

Whackin: I live and hunt in KY zone 1 too. Only 2.5 weeks until gun opener and deer camp!
