BigBucks27 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Do you guys prefer doe bleats or grunt calls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Best luck I have had with calling deer has been with grunts, seem to get mixed results with bleats. Killed several that came in on grunt calls, they work real well here pretty well from right about now on up to the post rut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 During the rut I use both. I like to give an estrous bleat followed by a few grunts. That has been my most productive calling method by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitetailfreak55 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I mainly use a grunt call along with rattling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I grunt and rattle. Rarely ever do bleats. I have had good luck grunting a few times, and then following it with about 30 seconds of light rattling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebeilgard Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 i have an elk call that works every time it's used. not sure how it would do for whitetail.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_lou Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I've had my best luck with grunt calls. The last couple bucks I've shot, came into blind calling. They both walked stiff-legged, ears pinned back right to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBucks27 Posted October 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Okay thanks guys! I never knew which one to do more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 i have an elk call that works every time it's used. not sure how it would do for whitetail.... around here it'd probably work all the time every time. don't have elk so the deer would probably come in to figure out what the heck it is. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 i've used grunt calls more to kill deer. don't use bleats that often. for a cruising buck that doesn't have it's head down i'd prefer a bleat call to be in my pocket. otherwise a grunt call would make me happy. it's more versatile.
