I’ve played with calling quite a bit at my place in Macon Co……The kicker being I knew exactly where the bucks were likely bedded, when they would be in there, how close I could get to them, and how I could approach without them seeing me
One of the coolest encounters I had was in the middle of the day during the rut…..It was really quiet on a blue bird day……I did a slow stomp down a bottom toward where I was pretty sure one was bedded up with some does hidden from their view by some tall understory growth. When I got to within about 75 yards of the thicket I suspected them to be in I stopped and started pawing the ground with my foot like a buck making a scrape…..What I was really doing was raking me out a spot to sit down……Once I sat down I let out one long grunt……I could hear him when he got up out of his bed and started easing to me……He got right to the edge of the thicket and just stuck his neck out enough to look around for the source of the noise……I started to pop him in the neck but he was just a decent 115-120 inch buck and I ended up letting him walk…..After a minute or so of standing there he turned around and disappeared back into the thicket
