Got this guy Monday am. Pulled the card on the cam and had 5 different bucks, one is a bruiser 8 point. so back at it today waiting for him now. I called him in from about 80 yds, tube, and bleat. shot at 22 yds slight quarter away. went 80 yds and dropped. rage chisel tip, elite energy 35.
Good stuff, congrats! Did you seem him before you called or were you blind calling as well? Just curious. I have been pretty silent on my calls this year, maybe it's time to use them more.
I had let a couple put grunts go about 10 minutes prior. then I saw him, hit the tube twice for attention, followed by the small can bleat, he came on a line. 9 times out of 10 I get this sequence to work. On Saturday I did the same with a 6 pointer, but he never gave a good shot so I passed. Good luck out there!
