Actual sound of Blacktail grunting
« on: October 03, 2018, 06:52:44 PM »
Anyone have a video of this. Few I’ve heard have been much more “nasely” and soft than many of the calls I have.

There's one on Youtube somewhere.  Also, the How to Hunt (.com) app for BT hunting has a short video of a buck grunting as he passes the camera.  Neither of these are worth spending a lot of time searching (or paying) for.  In each, if I remember correctly (which I may not  :dunno:) the grunts are a single burst of a half-second long sound.  Presumably, they would be longer and/or louder if engaged in a fight or tending a doe.  Maybe not.
