gobblerroller Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Have any of you had success with grunting in the past? I definitely have. Last season, I grunted in five bucks and a doe with the Primos Buck Roar. The key factor is that I didn't grunt when I wasn't seeing anything, I only grunted when i could see a deer out of range. Most of the bucks were on a powerline around 400 yards away, and I got their attention while they were walking across. Some ended up coming in within 5 yards. The Buck Roar is definitely a legit grunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Have any of you had success with grunting in the past? Yep, sure have. A few on the wall that were called in with blind calling. Last year's deer I am pretty darned sure was coming in on the call http://www.realtree.com/forums/deer-hunting/102568-short-hunt-smoked-one-mler.html, he is still at the taxidermist. May not work everywhere, but think some situations/places blind calling can be extremely effective at catching a bucks interest and getting him to give you a look. Terrain and cover here work real well for calling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUDRUNNER Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I've had good luck with grunts and bleats. The Primos Buck Roar and the Tru Talker are the two I use. I've had mixed results with a snort wheeze..seems like the majority of the time it runs the deer off, but does work on occasion. Rattling is something that I've never had work for some reason.

I've scared off several bucks by using a snort wheeze. Never have had it to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhine16 Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Called in bucks with grunts, snort wheeze and the can. Also have watched them hear neither and never check up from where they were headed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin R10 man Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 They sure do work..called my buck back in after he decided to leave...of course it was the Primos Buck Roar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 i've called in bucks and doe at times using a tending grunt, roar, a couple contact grunts, and even doe grunts. i've used bleats and fawn balls to call in deer too. the best result i ever had was with a doe running across a field with a trench for a cell tower access road in the middle of it. she was trying to figure out how to get around it and was about 320 yards away. i gave her a couple contact grunts and she turned and headed straight to me. i was higher in elevation but in the middle of a field, so i had to hide behind a round bale of hay. she came to within 10 yards. i usually try to call to a deer and only if it's not headed my way.

RangerClay Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 The Buck Roar is without a doubt my favorite grunt call ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xzavyer Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Yes i have to agree also promos came up with the best call with the roar the bleat and the can. I called in my first buck using the true talker nd primos can. I was blind calling and he walked through. I have grunted and rattled and had one come in and bed down in front of me and never give me a shot cause he looked right at me the hole tyme. But yea i belive it works.
