The trick to using calls is two fold. First is to only use enough volume for the deer to acknowledge the call. This can be just the twitch of an ear or tail, Or it could even run right at you. The thing is you are not calling a dog. Many times the deer will stay its course only to circle down wind for awhile only to come in an hour later. Calls are something that takes much trial and error.
The second part is scent. You have to sell your call to the deer that you are the real deal and not some crazy hunter trying to run an arrow through him. Think of it this way, if you come home and your wife yells down stairs she has been baking cookies all day but your nose smells men's cologne what is your mind going to tell you.
You have to sell the whole product if you want a deer to buy from your store. |
