Congrats on the buck. Too bad your wife missed him. IMO I only use a grunt as a last resort to try and bring a deer in. I could never see why anyone would want to get a deer's attention before you shoot it. I think they do that on TV just for the camera. If a deer is in a field feeding, it will be doing more standing than walking so I would just let it do its thing while I did mine. And why not shoot a slowly walking buck with a ML or rilfe? Bow yes, it should be standing still.
My friend and I always are watching the Outdoor Channel on Tuesdays and sometimes we have to chuckle. I know a lot has to do with the camera, etc. but if those guys hunted where we hunt they wouldn't take many deer. The deer have to be standing stone still, broadside, and looking at the camera.

I am going back to the ML when hunting around my house. I spent a lot of time with it this year putting a scope on it and getting it dialed in and I am anxious to get one with it. Yesterday was the first day out with a rifle even though season started last Saturday.
