Grunting – Sweet Music To A Deer Hunter’s Ear by Grant Woods
Grunt calls can be a tremendous tool! They will work throughout most of the deer season, but they may work best during mid to late October throughout most of the whitetail’s range.

Because receptive does are scarce most bucks will readily check out the source of grunts in an effort to find a receptive doe.
