I know when a deer is walking unalert that a mouth grunt or whistle will often stop him long enough for a shot.
Last year archery hunting in Utah I came across a herd of 7 bachelor bucks that were spooked and on the move. They were about 50 yards downhill and moving across the mountain directly below me and were aware that I was there. I drew back and grunted then whistled but none of the bucks stopped long enough for a shot. They were not at a run but were moving at a fast walk.
Is there a reliable way to get those bucks to stop next time? Or is this just a blown proposition?
