I have to so say i almost ought the doe bleet in a can, untill asked my supervisor wich is an avid hunter.Does this really work.Helooked at me with a stupid look on his fave and said"when was the last time you heard a deer that sound liks this." as he turned the can upside down. So know gents whats yours?

those stupid rattle bags.

Bucks respond to fights, not kids playing with lincoln logs

I think one of the worst I have seen was an ad for the "Deer View Mirror"...it was a rear view mirror you could mount to a tree you had your treestand in to see deer coming in from behind you. wtf hammer

this may sound stupid but while i was looking to the left of my deer blind , a deer walked directly under my box blind and into the cover of a nearby brush that was about 5 yds away.Maybe if i had had some mirrors or a discor ball hanging from my blind. i wouldnt hae missed it.

When I first saw this I thought you've got to be kidding, what will they come up with next. Tried it and it works great. Keep one with my cleaning kit now.



Early to bed, early to rise, hunt all day and make up lies.

BUCK BOMBS!!!

One of the weekend warriors at the place I hunt used one and just so happened a 8pnt came out 30min later and he shot it.

He of course would have never come out onto the food plot that had a feeder without the use of the buck bomb so a couple of guys load up and drive 45min to walmart and buy everyone they had!!!

Oh and the trophy rock...take $1.00 worth of mineral and press it into a rock form and sell it for $15

Sorry I just couldnt bring myself to jam that thing up a deer's but and yank it out, that is friggin grose! barf

I think tinks 69 is a joke i have had more deer startle snort and run from it than it ever brought in, buck crack is a joke along with all the other miracle feeds, most of the food plot blends I have trid wont even grow in a flower pot kept in perfect conditions soil water and fertilizer, scent blocker-scent away anything is a no go for me, and most cammo. I hunt in box blinds so blue jeans is the way I go most of the time, when I am going to spot and stalk on our place I wear carhart, it is almost a perfect match on the winter time grass down there.

I have had good luck with the doe bleat can call though. Last year I wasnt seeing much, hit that little dude a couple times and had 4 bucks come in, no big ones but they came. I have had several deer come into it, bucks and doe.

I used my rattle bag last weekend and 7 bucks came running in looking for a fight. Granted I have used it lots of times before without results but this time it did work. I guess conditions have to be perfect.
