There are three basic types of deer calls you should know for early season hunting: Grunt tube, Fawn bleat, and Doe snort wheeze. Learn how to use each one to attract a buck in close proximity. You can then practice these sounds to increase your chances of landing your prey. These are the most powerful call patterns and will help close the distance.
Grunt tube
Calling deer in the early season isn't necessary for the prerut, when deer will be grazing during the afternoon and hunting. The sound of a grunt is not the only thing you need to attract deer to your location. Calling early-season deer is more effective when it sounds deep and not nasal. 8-pointers, and 10-pointers grunt louder than market hogs.
Fawn bleat
Fawn bleat, a high-pitched cry that attracts does, is a powerful call. It's most effective during the first part of the season when there are still plenty of yearling deer in your hunting area. It has a luring ability for bucks and does, making it an excellent locator calling for hunters as well as photographers. This call can sound distressing or high-pitched.
Doe bleat
A doe's bleat is a high-pitched sound that a fawn produces when in distress. This sound is heard by approximately 80% to 80% does in your vicinity. The fawn sound is quite easy to use, despite its high pitch. It is an excellent call for early-season hunting. Over-blasting the call can lead to buck tracking. This call should be used sparingly in situations with good lighting.
Snort wheeze
The snortwheeze is a deer call that can be more aggressive. This is a powerful call that will reach deer that don't respond well to standard calls. Hunters will use this call last resort but run the risk to scare deer away by using less aggressive calls. This call is best for mature bucks and not small ones.
Snort tube
While using a standard snort-wheeze call in the early season is effective, you can get the best results by combining it with a snort-wheeze deer call. While this combination offers a lot more volume than the standard snort-wheeze call, it may not be powerful enough to reach some bucks. It's used only by hunters as an emergency call and can be lost to more aggressive calls. A snort-wheeze deer call is most effective on mature bucks, as it will spook small bucks.
Blind calling
Hunting deer can be as simple as setting up a blind to begin calling when they are early in the season. This method is particularly effective during pre-rut because thick vegetation can block out the sounds of calling. Calls can spark curiosity and enable you to take close-up photos. Try watching these free videos to learn more about the deer response when you call. You'll be surprised at how effective this method is!
Scent elimination products
Hunting can be made easier by scent elimination products. These products are made up of a mixture of attractants and chemicals to mask the scents of humans. These products, unlike scent-elimination deer call, are not designed to imitate the scents of other deer. Scent-elimination products utilize the unique From One Deer, to One Bottle(r), collection method. These scent-elimination products work by masking human scents to create better hunting opportunities.

How To
How to make a Deer Blind
A deer blind is an example of a hunting device that hides game animals such deer, elk and others. The blind consists of a small enclosure, usually made of canvas or wood and often covered with branches and leaves. The hunter will hide inside the enclosure while he waits for his animal to pass. When hunting at nights, the hunter will often use a deerblind.
You can find deer blinds in many sizes and shapes. Some are portable and others are permanent. They are made from materials such as plywood, cardboard and plastic.
Box blinds, also known as box stands, are the most popular type of deer blinds. They consist of a wooden container with a roof and walls. They are easy to construct and move.
A tree stand is another type of deer blind. Tree stands are natural looking so that it is not obvious they exist. Most tree stands are permanently fixed to trees.
Ground blinds are also available, which look similar to tree stand but are built into a ground. Ground blinds can be camouflaged using grass, dirt or rocks. Ground blinds are sometimes referred to as "ground boxes."
There are many different ways you can hunt in a deer blind. You can wait for the animal's approach by sitting still. Another way is to move around and try to scare the animal away. If this is your preferred method, keep quiet and don’t move too often. This could lead to an animal believing you are a threat and running off.
A deer blind can only be used in a specific spot. Pick a spot where there is no wind to blow your scent towards the animal. Avoid areas where people often hike.
Also, ensure you understand how to set up a deer blind. The last thing you want is for the animal see you and run.
