Identifying Whitetail Calls and Communications


Whitetail deer communicate with scent, various vocalizations, and body language. The trick is to know how to interpret these sounds and body language to help you in your quest for that trophy Whitetail.

The off season is a great time to brush up on your knowledge, and a great time to practice imitating some calls and understanding body language so that by Fall you'll be a master.

Whitetail Calls and Communication:

This information is from the Outdoor Adventures Network:


Non Aggressive Deer Calls

Contact Calls :
This sound is a doe's way of locating other deer of her family group . This call can be used all year long.


Doe Grunt :
Grunts are a doe's way of saying come here, also to call her fawns at feeding time. It is critical to keep the call soft as a loud grunt is too aggressive of a call.


Buck Bawl :
This sound's a lot like a calf bawl , but it is a series of buck bleats. This signals the bucks desire for company.


Sparring :
This is a non aggressive and social behavior that all bucks do after shedding their velvet. This is when the bucks learn who can whip the other. This process does not prevent serious fights later on during the rut.

Aggressive Deer Calls

Sniff
:
Deer make this sound to intimidate other deer and prevent fights. This call is often made by a rut- crazed buck when confronted with a rival. This sound can send smaller buck running from the area.


Wheeze
Another rut crazed Bucks sound to intimidate other deer and prevent fights when confronted with a rival. This sound can also send smaller buck running from the area.

Rattling

Aggressive Rattling
:
This is a short aggressive rattling sequence to possibly lure in less aggressive, but curious buck, as well as the local dominant whitetail buck of the area. To make this sound like a real fight sniffs, wheezes and grunts have also been thrown
in for added effect.
