I've tried the fawn distress call a few times with no response. It sure creates a racket.
Anyhow, Warren Womack put a few clips up on youtube of the distress call in action. You can gauge if they're for you or not. Thx to Warren for the clips.

I have mouth called a couple but It rare I think more a last ditch effort then a tactic IMHO. I try a primos call one time and had a pretty red fox almost jump in my lap. I've never heard a deer make that sound before, I have also never tried eating one alive either so.......

Its great for predators One of my favorite calls for coyotes. Had deer come in also. I would use soft bleats for deer not the panic type call.

You can hop but you can't hide.
If it was not for rabbits I would never get a buck.

One time a very nice 10 point was tending to a doe about 100 yards away in very thick cover. I voice grunted and got no reaction. I then did a fawn distress call (not terribly loud) and the doe came running closer. The buck followed and stood between the doe and me. He was huge and the arrow went high. It was a fun experience but I have NEVER had luck with a fawn distress call since.
BTW, the buck had an inside spread of 19 1/2". I found this out when the neighbor shot him.

Try it on time, when you have a group of deer out of range, but within sight.
You just might be surprised.
Be forwarned, the deer will be jumpy, and shots must be very close.

I just called one in for my son saturday.He shot it at 10 yds with his compound. He drew back when he heard them coming It works better when.there are 2 people caller and shooter. I use it some in the midday while scouting and sometimes right. Before I get down from the stand. It works and its exciting. I only try during the first couple weeks of the season though.

I've had several does, a buck, and a grey fox come in to investigate a fawn bawl over the years. The does always sneak in, then begin stomping and blowing.

Works good in early season, Does come running, or sneaking. I've had three come in at once at full run. I've had just as many coyotes come looking for an easy meal. Very exciting when it works. It don't always work.

I have had some success with fawn bleats, but never tried a full out bawl.

I blew one of the Primos fawn bawls a couple of different times (trips). If you want to see deer, blow it. If you want a chance to take a shot at a deer with the your bow, don't blow it.
They come in coiled like a spring and if they are a mature doe and you are in a tree stand they will pick you off right away.
