Lethal Calls delivers 100% authentic recorded audio, from live whitetail deer (including the buck pictured on this screen). These recordings were completed during the breeding season at Progressive Farms in Askov, MN. Within this app, you'll find 8 categories containing 64 audio clips, such as buck and doe grunts, sparring, snort wheeze, buck roars, growls, and bucks chasing does. Listen close - you'll hear sticks cracking, leaves crunching, and brush breaking, making this the most realistic LETHAL call ever produced! During the Rut: Use audio from the Buck Sparring, Snort Wheeze, Buck Making Scrape, Buck Pursuing Doe, Buck Rubs, and the Buck Roars and Growls within the Buck Grunt category, as these sounds are made by bucks when trying to intimidate other deer or are sexually frustrated.
