What are you using?I have good luck with the original primos can call.
MAD Buck growl without the rubber tube. I get more response with that call than any other I've used.
I bought about 10 Primos hardwood grunt calls from Wally World discount bin about 10 years ago. I tried everyone of them out until I found one that I liked.
I have since called in many bucks with that call
Ive always had good luck with the tru talker I believe made by h.s.strut. Also the doe in estrus can by primos.
snort/Wheeze done by hand and mouth or I have a Primos call with the little funnel on it. I'll do it at cruising bucks or randomly like grunting. That is how I shot last years buck and in 2008.
Customs by Jeremy (J. Holden) here on Tradgang made to match my bow. Both custom turned from cocobolo, antler, and bamboo. They sound very natural and have more character to their voice quality than all plastic calls, they look good, and they work. I go out with a buck grunt tube and all wood doe bleat call. I rarely use them unless deer are just hanging out at rifle ranges and not coming in. Sometimes it works to pique their interest and sometimes they tune into me with their ears and go on about their business.
I've been using the same Woods Wise Doe bleat/buck grunt combo for 25 years. I use the doe bleats about 90% of the time. I also snort weeze with my mouth.
Extinguisher grunt tube, switched to it last year and pulled a 3 yr old off a doe at 80 yards away to 15 when I sent the arrow over his back, awesome call.
Primos grunt tube. Worked nicely last year on a good buck. Brought him back in to me after he started walking away. To bad there was too much brush between us.
The Extinguisher was for me the biggest waste of money, the thing froze up on me with a buck 80 yards away and nothing to call with! It was smashed in the driveway after that hunt, I get violent that way ;) Primos works..
I agree with GDPolk . Jeremy makes some of the best sounding deer calls made .

Not to mention they are beautiful, custom made to match your bow/preferences, very well made, and Jeremy is a great guy to work with.
I'm slowly working on a full range of calls from him for all the game animals I hunt and I've ordered other calls from him to give as gifts. He's a great craftsman.
Smokeys, and you can order your deer lure while you are at it. He is a sponsor.
Can.
