I can't believe this is a free lesson in tracking!!! Love this guy ,and his family. Great hunters, I've fallowed these guys for a few years now. Great info, best of luck to all that hunt.
I popped in by accident, but I was so hooked on what he was saying! So much so that I left for my blind later than I wanted because I was so interested to hear what was next. But I will say, what he said about the Doe coming in all pissy…. That happened to me when I was practicing my calls for the first time, and I didn’t realize it was my call that got her all frazzled. Thanks so much for making this video! You’ve made me a better bow Hunter!
I've stopped deer on a dead run with a "hey" and also by whistling loud. I've also stopped deer by running toward them. Sometimes doing something that they don't expect will pique their curiosity. The last deer that I harvested spooked, but a couple of grunts brought him back in. It wasn't a trophy by any means, but he put venison in the freezer.
Great info. Live in central maine. 41year old novice hunter. Trying my best to learn so I can teach my 4kids to enjoy the outdoors and hunt. Keep the great content coming!
I started around that time grabbed a rifle and scope and bought corn sat in old stand father in law had my first one was a yearling doe as I couldn’t tell cause stand higher off ground year after that dropped a young 5 pointer and last year I called with rattling a aggressive old 4 point he been in fights and had scars to prove it down here u hunt u lucky to get a 6-8 as a trophy but I hunt for meat.
This definitely got me in the mood for some fresh snow. I sure hope the weather cooperates this year. Good luck to everyone, and I hope you all have a safe and successful season!
Awesome information. I’ve never heard a better discussion on calling. I live in Florida and still hunt or sit on the ground. I’m going to try this. Thank you. Keep it coming.
I have played with calling since i was a teen and what you said in this video is spot on. Keep up the good work Good luck in Maine this year! Love your videos and content, a station with no bull Sh**
I grew up in Westminster Ma, looks like my high school was about 5 minutes away. Next year have to check it out. My old boss shot a deer in Hubbardston Ma weighed 248.
Great information! The biggest thing that caught my attention was the buck chewing his cud on his feet!! Always wondered about that after tracking a feeding buck for 4-5 miles that feeds and doesn’t lay down!👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks, Will
Great info...great presentation, very engaging, thanks. Been still hunting here in central Maine for most of my 77 years but will try some of these terrific tracking pointers this year.
Memba the first time I got a buck to respond. I was bout done, walking out a tow road having a dart after my all day sit, when bout 40ft ahead a massive bodied boy comes trapsing thru the open oaks, and I swear he saw or least heard me as I walked (it was last day so I was making no effort to be quite or slow in my frustration) and I was sure he smelt me as I Def was upwind at that area. Anyways, he steps across the road, I watch as he at that point clearly looked over at me and kept Goin. Figured I'd have a play, and made a quick mouth bleat. He took off like a rocket away from me, and I heard him crash a thicket. I stood still but after about 20 seconds I could hear a faint crunch of the leaves as he clearly was attempting to skirt around and get a better look. I ducked behind a massive Boulder, like massive,and picked the side it sound he was approaching from. As I set up it sounded as if he'd switched sides and sprinted in so I rushed to spin about b4 he could see me. I about faced, froze, a waited. The turd had either switched again, or I misinterpreted the sound and he was on the first side I picked, about 2 arms lengths away from me. Needles to say I was in awe. He stood and stared as I was froze for maybe 5 seconds, before bolting back across the road and got to cover b4 I could get a good shot so needless to say I didn't get him. It was last 30mins so I made a feeble attempt but I feel he friggin knew what time/day it was and this was his way of showboating he made it another season.....still and awesome experience.
Wow the first three minutes describes and encounter I had this year perfectly. Buck had my wind blowing right at him and I was below him. About 15 yards diagonally over my left shoulder. He blew and scampered about 20 yards. As soon as he broke visual sight with me I grunted once and moved up the hill a bit and he did a complete 180 and was working his way to find a buck. It was crazy.
Like everyone else I just love listening and watching you Rodney. You are so easy to listen to. I would love to hunt with you sometime but of course that’s not going to happen. Everyone thinks that!
Just an extra tip for anyone else hunting this way ive realized adding tinks or whatever deer scent you like to my orange 😂 i know its nasty but in bad wind situations that hot doe smell blowing in mixed with my own human scent buys me a little extra time ive seen the confusion on a bucks face hearing and smelling a deer but also being nervous knowing a human is near and some will pause wanting 100% confirmation on whats coming before running
You remind me of a Gent,named Jerry Peterson, he was a master caller, he made a 6 in one deer call,that was a game changer, I'm a big caller and deer scents, 🦌. Thank you for the information.
I damn near got run over by a big doe first time I used a fawn can call. Sitting on my butt against a big oak in mountains. She skidded to a stop literally 6 feet from my legs and looked around. I sat still til she gave up and left. Scared the crap out of me. But was amazed that the can call actually worked.
I still hunt a lot. I will mix it up, I will grunt softly as I'm moving or use the bleat. I shot a 6X6 a few years back using the can call. Granted I was by a huge scrape which probably helped. And I've actually had a little forked Horn Buck follow me down a draw one year while I was grunting.. I live in North Idaho and spend a lot of time in the brush when hunting. I figure even if they don't come into the call and they move away I may hear them.its probably my most favorite way to hunt.
I live in northern MIchigsn and I've hunted ever sense I can remember . It's a family tradition at our camp . I bow hunt state land but rifle hunt private. I started using a grunt tube 6vyrs ago. It took me a couple yrs to find a grunt tube that actually worked. Also a bleat can . It took me a few yrs to figure out what to do but I tell you what, once I cracked the code I've called in a buck each n every yr with my bow. Its so exciting and ya get hooked on calling . Totally hooked on calling . It's a Rush !
I'm very fortunate, had a Cherokee man teach me how to bring any deer to me when I a young fellow. They are going to come find me no matter what. My buddies tell folks I don't need a bow, just a baseball bat. I get accused of bring deer back to my state in refrigerated 🚛 from orher states. Priceless 🏆
Gosh wish I watched this before I took a long shot at a buck during the Massachusetts Archery season. I shoulda snort wheezed to get him to come closer
I was walking a wash in Arizona heading back in from hunt at noon. I decided to practice grunt calls while walking since I was done in the area. I ran into a huge Mule deer. Caught me off guard. I couldn't knock my arrow before he caught on. 😂. But grunt calls work. I also got my brother his first deer grunting while stalking a firebreak. We would light grunt wait then walk about 150 yard repeat. Finally, a young buck stepped out about 50 yard away into break giving him a shot. Can't say for sure it was the calling or just timing but seemed to be responding. I think it's important to call but not too often. Have to make the deer look for the source and get them moving.
i have been calling deer for over 48 years. along with rattling and have had many close encounters. using the same call that i have had for many years. calling can bring in deer all year round..
I learned when I was young bass fishing. It’s about trying to get the animals natural reaction if you can make your worm look injured! Meals aren’t free in the wild
I tried grunting rattling and doe in a can at my blind after seeing several deer for days until I tried grunting and rattling and a doe in a can I didn't see anything and I grunted soft deep and not very often and it was like no deer were around next day I just sat quietly in my blind and tons of deer came out I had does 7 yards from my blind one even sat down then a small rack 8 point came 12 yards away and I took him he was a big deer 4 5 years old weight around 150 pounds after field dressed Then 2 days later a 8 point with big wide antlers stepped in same place I got him but he was alot smaller body I think he was no more than 3 years old weighed under 150 pounds but much nicer rack but when I tried to call deer in I do the opposite and don't see any deer so try it you may do it but I just don't have any luck using them and I have watched videos and shows on how to call deer and I can make same sounds and same cadence but just can't talk to deer until I'm dragging them to my truck lol good luck everyone and keep hunting
My biggest issue in the past, has been when the older bucks suddenly go nocturnal, or they begin bedding down in inaccessible swamps & in floating bogs. 😔 Like within the intelligence of a dog, it doesn’t take them long to learn how to outsmart a human at the first hint of hunting pressure, reading & recognizing your body language along the way. They know the difference, if your all fluffy with insulation & a pack planing to stay, vs, your traveling light & just passing through.
Wish this guy was around me I love when people walk and jump deer to hunters it’s the best lol. Yes stalking works for little bit but during rifle season the rut Nah it’s sitting still calling deer are moving . But If u know ur land and where deer travel yea it’s easy to stalk deer to get perfect shot
We are putting together some plans for seminars and workshops this fall in September and October. We will let you know when we have things ciphered out 👍🦌
I was just going through most of this in my head if im calling to much or too less. I feel like deer here in Mi arent as vocal maybe the hunting pressure amd swamps since everything echos in the swamp. I have heard little ones grunting but nothing over a year and a half. I hit the doe bleat right at dawn and had a rock of socks wrapped with duct tape almost instantly i heard something moving not fast but headed in the opposite direction wasnt interested at all tried using the bleat again but to no prevail the deer left the area the way it was bedded alone and out in the thick swamp im guessing it was a buck. When is the best time to use a estrous bleat? When is the best time to just remain silent and hope for the best i swear i always get in my head while im the stand
I like the fact they are use to the smell of humans to my advantage. I will go sit by a nice smoky fire. After the morning fire throw some water in the fire and get really close. Deer are use to the smell of smoke is my opinion. Again in my opinion Smoke smell permeates material not just cover up smells. Great advice you gave. Tried petting a deer once on a trail, I hid behind a tree as she was walking down. As soon as she walk by the tree I touched her butt. She almost took my freaking head off with those back hoofs.
Not saying calling doesn’t work but I’ll argue that a rack buck will fall for it , learned this year always called a little just to let them know there might be another deer around.
Lol I hunt deer like I hunt elk.... If that makes sense, you know what I'm talking about... You have to know what to say and when to say it then it's game on.
Just a small grunt and there going ti stop in there tracks to see were he is at that's when it's game over he is on the ground then. call for help to get him loaded and out of there if ur a lady ......
@@stdavis22 I shot a buck on Thanksgiving Day and when I cut the legs off my doe goats came over and hit on the leg. In 3 days they were in heat looking for a Buck. lol
Those tactics are a limited nitch to those geographic areas. Mountain buck are completely different from other buck. Plus it's not the only way to hunt those animals. I'd bet long-range shooting and deer drives would be equally successful. I usually enjoy watching other tactics, but all of these hunting shows are becoming obnoxious. The overwhelming majority only shows the successes. A wise man once told me, "A bad day of hunting is better than a good day at work or school." Enjoy the experience of the outdoors, everything else is BS......
@camdengrant2620 Deer with less hunting pressure act differently. Mountain deer are far more inquisitive than subrubian deer. That live amongst people 24/7! The more one educates a whitetail deer, the harder they are to hunt.
What do you think the terrain in the north east is? We hunt this way because it’s all heavy timbered mountains you can’t shoot long distances on. 😂 The closet deer I’ve shot was at 5 steps walking and calling. This works all the time.
You are clueless. This works everywhere. It may need to be modified for the terrain, but calling and tracking are great tactics. They work in Alberta as well as Maine. Totally opposite sides of the continent.
@@HicksIntheStix Two years ago I got an 8 point at 8 yards looking straight at me. Walked right up in him. A 9 point 8 yards, last year in 8 at 25, the biggest buck I ever got came within 2 yards. I shot him at 15 with a Hoyt Easton. Did not have a clue I was there. I actually missed a buck with a bow at 5 feet that was going to contact me on the trail if I hadn't shot at him. Yes I missed a buck at 5 feet. Try that on for size. It sucks royally
@@GarySaint-xm6tr Don’t doubt it. But you simply cannot beat a deers nose. They can smell 100x better than that of a bloodhound. Even with wind in your favor, it’s not guaranteed a mature deer won’t wind you.
😂 Hi ! Big bucks do come to grunt calls ! I've shot a lot of big bucks using a grunt call or a bleep or rattling some horns, with some Doe in Heat pee , strategically placed ! Try it sometime, I wouldn't go hunting for Big Bucks without them four things that I just mentioned ! 🙏🇺🇲✌️
I've done all this since I was 40 years old and now I'm 63 put hunting around public Ain't Easy especially when you find a spot and you try to stay in that spot somebody else is always in it after you find it and especially the way the DNR have been clearing Woods in Wisconsin they don't make it easy for you to get through they leave all the trees they cut down they just leave right in the way they don't give you a trail to go through so nobody will hunt that area then can I get all these other guys coming in there they make these fake scrapes sometimes it's hard for me to tell if it's from the deer or them sometimes I just don't think I'm calling the right way all the time last two days I've been walking back from the field and the door's been in the middle of the field she doesn't move she still stands or while I walk all the way back to the my vehicle just keeps eating there

Nothing gets me juiced up for deer season like some mountain deer videos.
Great stuff Rodney! You are a mighty fine teacher. I could just sit here and listen to you talk about stories from hunts all day
I've stopped deer on a dead run with a "hey" and also by whistling loud. I've also stopped deer by running toward them. Sometimes doing something that they don't expect will pique their curiosity. The last deer that I harvested spooked, but a couple of grunts brought him back in. It wasn't a trophy by any means, but he put venison in the freezer.
Me too lol I always say ME really loud and authority and stop them in a dead run 😂😊😅

14:42 already the most informative thing ive heard for hunters like myself who have been doing this a LONG rtime but coud still use some pointers.
What a great seminar Rodney! This is going to teach a LOT of people
This definitely got me in the mood for some fresh snow. I sure hope the weather cooperates this year. Good luck to everyone, and I hope you all have a safe and successful season!
Awesome information. I’ve never heard a better discussion on calling. I live in Florida and still hunt or sit on the ground. I’m going to try this. Thank you. Keep it coming.
I live and hunt in Central Florida. I don't think the deer here like calling at all but will continue to try it out
I have played with calling since i was a teen and what you said in this video is spot on. Keep up the good work Good luck in Maine this year! Love your videos and content, a station with no bull Sh**
Excellent !
Had many of the same experiences in Ohio . Ground or still hunted for over 50 years with a HIGH degree of success .
Nothing better than still hunting. Took me a long time to learn to be patient enough to have success.
I grew up in Westminster Ma, looks like my high school was about 5 minutes away. Next year have to check it out.
My old boss shot a deer in Hubbardston Ma weighed 248.

Nice to meet you guys at huntstock! Thanks for taking the time to get a pic and listen to my deer hunt story!
Awesome video. What a pleasure it was for me and my buddies to meet you Saturday night at the end of the show,
Thank you for the great information! The seminars this past weekend were eye opening

Thanks rodney.....man u sure have a way of making us all beable to understand how and when to use a grunt!
Very informitive Rodney!! Thank-You!! Good luck this year!!
HAD THE RADISH!!! A saying my family uses😂. My cat was named Radish because the old one had the Radish!
Fantastic advice, enjoyed it from beginning to end. Thank you!
That was great & really informative, thanks for sharing your hunting stories! 🍻
I damn near got run over by a big doe first time I used a fawn can call. Sitting on my butt against a big oak in mountains. She skidded to a stop literally 6 feet from my legs and looked around.

Love you guys videos and info. You guys are full of info and great advice! All you guys are fun to watch and listen too.
That was surely good stuff! I concur with everyone else. No substitute for experience!
Just found this guy, great presentation and I will for sure....try these tactics!
I'm very fortunate, had a Cherokee man teach me how to bring any deer to me when I a young fellow. They are going to come find me no matter what. My buddies tell folks I don't need a bow, just a baseball bat. I get accused of bring deer back to my state in refrigerated 🚛 from orher states. Priceless 🏆
Gosh wish I watched this before I took a long shot at a buck during the Massachusetts Archery season. I shoulda snort wheezed to get him to come closer
I was walking a wash in Arizona heading back in from hunt at noon. I decided to practice grunt calls while walking since I was done in the area. I ran into a huge Mule deer. Caught me off guard. I couldn't knock my arrow before he caught on. 😂. But grunt calls work.
I also got my brother his first deer grunting while stalking a firebreak. We would light grunt wait then walk about 150 yard repeat. Finally, a young buck stepped out about 50 yard away into break giving him a shot. Can't say for sure it was the calling or just timing but seemed to be responding.
I think it's important to call but not too often. Have to make the deer look for the source and get them moving.
This was great. Hats off Rodney
This was awesome! Thanks for sharing this hard earned knowledge.
I hunt with 2 different grunt tubes, switching them up from time to time, so they don't pattern one call.
What state?
i have been calling deer for over 48 years. along with rattling and have had many close encounters. using the same call
that i have had for many years. calling can bring in deer all year round..
I learned when I was young bass fishing. It’s about trying to get the animals natural reaction if you can make your worm look injured! Meals aren’t free in the wild
I tried grunting rattling and doe in a can at my blind after seeing several deer for days until I tried grunting and rattling and a doe in a can I didn't see anything and I grunted soft deep and not very often and it was like no deer were around next day I just sat quietly in my blind and tons of deer came out I had does 7 yards from my blind one even sat down then a small rack 8 point came 12 yards away and I took him he was a big deer 4 5 years old weight around 150 pounds after field dressed
Then 2 days later a 8 point with big wide antlers stepped in same place I got him but he was alot smaller body I think he was no more than 3 years old weighed under 150 pounds but much nicer rack but when I tried to call deer in I do the opposite and don't see any deer so try it you may do it but I just don't have any luck using them and I have watched videos and shows on how to call deer and I can make same sounds and same cadence but just can't talk to deer until I'm dragging them to my truck lol good luck everyone and keep hunting
It was great seeing you guys at huntstock
Great to see again!
Great education on behavior. Thanks
Glad you found some value in it! Any suggestions for what you’d like to see next?
My biggest issue in the past, has been when the older bucks suddenly go nocturnal, or they begin bedding down in inaccessible swamps & in floating bogs. 😔
Like within the intelligence of a dog, it doesn’t take them long to learn how to outsmart a human at the first hint of hunting pressure, reading & recognizing your body language along the way.
They know the difference, if your all fluffy with insulation & a pack planing to stay, vs, your traveling light & just passing through.
Wish this guy was around me I love when people walk and jump deer to hunters it’s the best lol. Yes stalking works for little bit but during rifle season the rut Nah it’s sitting still calling deer are moving . But If u know ur land and where deer travel yea it’s easy to stalk deer to get perfect shot
This had me rolling😂😂
How about walking with a bow straight at a buck putting the bow up like antlers?
That's a great idea
Thanks for sharing
Great pep talk
Great info as always. If you do a seminar at the shop will you be posting it and where will you pay it ?
We are putting together some plans for seminars and workshops this fall in September and October. We will let you know when we have things ciphered out 👍🦌
Great information love the hunting.videos as well
I feel this is what the vibe feels like in AA lol
I was just going through most of this in my head if im calling to much or too less. I feel like deer here in Mi arent as vocal maybe the hunting pressure amd swamps since everything echos in the swamp. I have heard little ones grunting but nothing over a year and a half.

When is the best time to use a estrous bleat? When is the best time to just remain silent and hope for the best i swear i always get in my head while im the stand
I was wondering the same thing, when and how should i use a doe call in early rut, hopefully someone will respond to you
That might work on a spike but good luck with the big boy !
I've never been able to "CALL" a deer in. I've herd deer in my area. Seldom make any noise. Wolves hear that noise and it's a dinner bell.
I like the fact they are use to the smell of humans to my advantage.
I will go sit by a nice smoky fire.
After the morning fire throw some water in the fire and get really close.
Deer are use to the smell of smoke is my opinion.
Again in my opinion Smoke smell permeates material not just cover up smells.
Great advice you gave.

Not saying calling doesn’t work but I’ll argue that a rack buck will fall for it , learned this year always called a little just to let them know there might be another deer around.
Great video Rodney, what grunt call do you use and recommend?
We just use our own voices , most any call will work but a change in pitch while grunting isn’t usually possible. So we can ….
I don't know if it's true, or how they figured it out. I have heard a whitetail deer can distinguish six different Scents at 1 time
Great video Thank you
Hi
OCTOBER BABY YES
Lol I hunt deer like I hunt elk.... If that makes sense, you know what I'm talking about... You have to know what to say and when to say it then it's game on.
Just a small grunt and there going ti stop in there tracks to see were he is at that's when it's game over he is on the ground then. call for help to get him loaded and out of there if ur a lady ......
I called a buck out if the woods just hunting myself. He tasted good
Baron munchaunsen syndrome right here. 🤣🤣👍❤️
best thing i ever did was get goats and study how they feed and call. Deer and goats are very close in behavior patters.
this is really interesting...earlier this season my brother in law said "theyre basically just wild goats" which really changed my perception
@@stdavis22 I shot a buck on Thanksgiving Day and when I cut the legs off my doe goats came over and hit on the leg. In 3 days they were in heat looking for a Buck. lol
I whistled at running deer and had them stop dead in their tracks.

Whitetail are whitetail. Can’t see how mountain terrain would drastically affect how they react to calling

You are clueless. This works everywhere. It may need to be modified for the terrain, but calling and tracking are great tactics. They work in Alberta as well as Maine. Totally opposite sides of the continent.
@paulpryor850 where do I find these low pressure deer?
The deer are saying the same thing;never trust a human 😂
I learned the sectret to beat a deers nose.

Two years ago I got an 8 point at 8 yards looking straight at me. Walked right up in him. A 9 point 8 yards, last year in 8 at 25, the biggest buck I ever got came within 2 yards. I shot him at 15 with a Hoyt Easton. Did not have a clue I was there. I actually missed a buck with a bow at 5 feet that was going to contact me on the trail if I hadn't shot at him. Yes I missed a buck at 5 feet. Try that on for size. It sucks royally
@@GarySaint-xm6tr Don’t doubt it. But you simply cannot beat a deers nose. They can smell 100x better than that of a bloodhound. Even with wind in your favor, it’s not guaranteed a mature deer won’t wind you.

There is a trick. I'd tell you what it is, but not in social media
@@GarySaint-xm6tr you got snap, insta, Facebook, anything
I don't know what's so dangerous about having a deer close to you?.. Deer must be a lot more aggressive where he's hunting.
Yeah but that's a young buck completely different than mature older deer. Grunts don't fool old bucks.
😂 Hi ! Big bucks do come to grunt calls ! I've shot a lot of big bucks using a grunt call or a bleep or rattling some horns, with some Doe in Heat pee , strategically placed ! Try it sometime, I wouldn't go hunting for Big Bucks without them four things that I just mentioned !
🙏🇺🇲✌️
People with way to much time
Zzzzzzz.
I've done all this since I was 40 years old and now I'm 63 put hunting around public Ain't Easy especially when you find a spot and you try to stay in that spot somebody else is always in it after you find it and especially the way the DNR have been clearing Woods in Wisconsin they don't make it easy for you to get through they leave all the trees they cut down they just leave right in the way they don't give you a trail to go through so nobody will hunt that area then can I get all these other guys coming in there they make these fake scrapes sometimes it's hard for me to tell if it's from the deer or them sometimes I just don't think I'm calling the right way all the time last two days I've been walking back from the field and the door's been in the middle of the field she doesn't move she still stands or while I walk all the way back to the my vehicle just keeps eating there
Try this in Louisiana public land and see what happens.
Good luck! If you get one let us know 👍🦌
