I only call sparingly when I try to call mule deer in. I try not to educate the does. I call only when I see a shooter buck with does that are in thick cover or moving away or later in the season if I see a group of deer that are moving off into thicker cover.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I always picture his eyes looking like that all the time. He seems wound tight. Ahhh, to be young again.

Good video stx. I stumbled into this mule deer calling thing back in 1980 while in college. I was a big bowhunter back then. I called in an ancient 8x7 175 class buck for my buddy a couple of weeks ago that was with 2 does. They came running in from 400 yds away just like in your video. I never hunt muleys without it. Don't always use it but I have it handy. Thanks for posting that.

Pretty cool. I'm glad I never had to take an antler to the eyeball for a girl.

I witnessed that in Montana last year. The deer were a long way off on a neighboring property running from hunters. Our guide hit the call. My buddy and I was like WTF! He trying to run them further into the property? He casually looks at us and says, “You might want to get ready!” We both start laughing. Then it was a mad dang scramble when all the deer came out of the draw at a dead run to us. Never will forget that!

Ask BOBO about doubting if calling works and his reaction when he saw it live and in person.

Fawn in distress is almost cheating with muley does. I've never seen a buck react to it on his own, but will definitely follow his girls if he's working up a harem.
To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.www.NewHopeEquine.com - Health and Healing through Horses.
