[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Been out of Bow Hunting for a few years. To grunt or not to grunt???

Posted: 10/19/2014 9:03:03 AM EDT

So I went and Bought a used Mathews Switchback with all the goodies. The damn thing is beyond amazing. So..... Yesterday I am out in the woods and a weird thought crossed my mind.

Is it too early to try a grunt call? Normally that's kind of a Rut thing, BUT does it hurt to give an occasional grunt right now?

Thanks

I had a couple of bucks this weekend that I tried to get in with The Can. Neither one really showed much interest in it. Didn't have my rattle bag or grunt tube with me - suspect it's just a touch early.

As of 10-18 in KY Bucks are reacting to Grunting and LIGHT Rattling. I rattled in 4 small bucks and 4 does.

I was able to stick a doe and recover her after a short walk. she only went about 30 yards.

With the weather changing as of today I am looking forward to this weekend I think its going to be good.

I will NOT be without my horns and grunt call.

Thursday night, I couldn't get a response to a grunt tube. Turned my doe bleat can over once and brought two in range immediately.

Thursday was also the first night I saw bucks chasing does this year.
