RE: Deer Vocalizations, The Roar/Growl Phenomenon
Nice deer Wis Bow Huntr.
1) There are an awful lot of guys posting in this thread that they have heard the "growl/roar" vocalization...........and many are pointing out that they heard it before these calls ever came out. Too many for it to be considered coincidental IMO.
2) It is also clear from the experiences of hunters in this thread that this sound does NOT scare deer away............even young bucks.
3) Without question is the fact that many hunters have used this call and been successful in attracting deer of all sizes into bow range. So, at the very least it is a quality grunt tube and for $15 is priced fairly in the call market.........that is enough right there to give it a thumbs up. The fact that it offers an easily performed different vocalization that is having lots of positive feedback from hunters using it in the woods makes it an easy decision to at least try it........heck, I tried it just because I was bored and didn't want to come home empty handed from Gander Mountain
BUCK GROWL/ROAR MYTH?????
