In the past I have had doe and cow elk come in to my predator call, to see what was dying or probably more to see what was doing the killing.
I got a shot at a deer this yr using a predator call and just about got ran over doing it.
Our early season was hot and dry, was like walking on corn flakes out there still hunting.
I jumped a deer in the timber, I was on an old logging rd. The deer was over a bank with low noisy brush covering it, along a switchback in the rd when I hear it bound away. With no chance of following that deer, I give the predator call a blow. with a loud crash, across the rd from where the deer went the brush explodes, I thought I jumped the elk. A doe is running full go strait at me (wish I had hid before I give it a blow) she stops at about 4 or 5yrd & with one little limb in between us that I don't see, and it was more than enough to send my arrow harmlessly off in the brush in a different direction. But I got the shot. It almost happened again two days later about 50 yrds down the rd,could have been the same deer, however I need to hide better no shot that time. Just throwing that out there, may be worth giving it a try to see if you get the same kind of results. Ed
