What a great story of a great buck and literally one of the best hunting videos I have ever watched on any platform. While the B roll was some of the best ever the A roll was even better. MW whitetail should be proud to have you guys.

  • @stephenmanukas7601
    @stephenmanukas7601 Год назад +1

    Great buck, but this video is a textbook lesson in how to NOT call to a mature buck. You don't call when they are close, especially when the woods is open and they can see the area around your tree. They can pinpoint the your location exactly. When they don't see a deer, they leave. You don't call repeatedly, once they have heard you. They know where you are. Repeatedly calling just makes them nervous and they leave. They know where the sound came from, and many times will cruise back through later in the day looking for that deer. Unpressured deer in IA are a different breed. Anywhere else in the country you don't get unlimited chances at the same mature buck.

    • @KalebGreiner
      @KalebGreiner Год назад

      Hey Stephen, I couldn't agree more with your words on calling when they are close, and how they can pin point your location and how they'll travel back through the area later in the day. I believe i mentioned that after calling at him the first time on Nov 8. Unfortunately in the video you cant tell how far the buck is, most times he is over 100yds away through timber and the second snort wheeze on the Nov 8 hunt didn't happen at that time it was shown in the video, it was just edited that way. Thanks for watching man!
