Re: the can

I have used the can with tremendous success throughtout the hunting season. I gave one to a friend of mine as a gift last year who was skeptical. The very next day he called me say "WOW! This thing really works!" He called 4 deer to his stand within 2 hours.

It is not a silver bullet but I have found the can to be extremely prodcutive ESPECIALLY in prerut conditions.

Re: the can

I have called in several does with the can and last year I called my biggest buck in with it. This 9 pointer was walking a ridge away from me and I grunted -nothing. I tickled my rattle bag -nothing. I hit the can 3 times and he stopped, turned and came right to me. I am a believer.

My can stopped working and I can't figure out why.

No, I keep it in my pack or in my pocket all the time.

It still makes a sound, but it only last for about 1/4 of a second.

Re: the can

It falls really fast, but I've got the hole covered good. I think either the diaphram is warn or it's got an air leak somewhere. I've only had it for 2 years and have only used it probibly 10 times, so I can't see how it could be worn out.

I guess I could wrap it tight in duck tape. smirk.gif

Have your kids ever shaken the call really hard. Pretty sure I read somewhere that said not to shake the call, possbile it may be damaged inside, or you may just have a defective call.

Reason I ask about the kids, my kids have played with my calls and when they were younger, they did sometimes want to shake the can call to get it to make sounds.

Re: the can

I used it with my buddy, we were getting a gun tower ready for gun season, I called in a small spikehorn buck to within 7 yards of me. I would turn the can over behind my back, he could not see that movement and keep coming closer and closer. He was super curious. Called him from over 100 yards away. It was awesome and made us believers of the can and its ability!

Never go hunting now without one in my fanny pack!!

I put my tip ups in a zip lock bag as soon as i get them home from the store. I have one the Bleat-In-Heat from Quaker Boy for over 15 years now. I put my Primos cans in Zip lock also. Don,t even need to take them out to make the call in the woods. I had pine needles etc: get in and ruin the calls before i did this. It solved the problem. smile.gif
