hello i am very new to using calls and thought i would try it out this year i plan on hunting in and around mid november what time of day would these calls be most useful and in what kind of terain, any advise apreciated thanks!
 
I have used a grunt call for years & love them. I hunt mostly in mixed bush/farmland. One thing to remember is NOT to call to much. After I get settled in my area, I usually call softly at first every 10 to 15 min. or so. Patience is key IMHO. Works best during the rut on hot bucks, but does will also come to investigate. My favorite call is a primos adjustable reed grunter. I can make it sound like a fawn, doe, or an old buck. As with any call practice makes perfect.

best is to wait and see whats happening weather could change and screw things up.but practice with your calls all the time.also try to learn the distress call it could be your friend
 
Best use of a call is to a deer you can see. Blind calling can bring in deer, but it can also drive them off (I have seen subordinate bucks slink off with their tails between their legs after hearing a low gutteral grunt like that made by a boss buck). Tune your grunter to a higher pitch of grunt, unless it is your intention to hunt only aggressive, dominant bucks, who tend to be quite rare. Calling also works best when deer are moving anyway ie, early morning, early evening, and all day during the rain.

Don't be afraid to call loud, particularly in windy or rainy conditions. I called in a spike buck with a grunt tube one time. I tried a number of times unsuccessfully to call to him, but had to blow it as hard as I could just to make him hear it in the rain a 100 yds away. When he heard it, he came in on a string, probably curious.
