To be honest, I was never a big fan of Primos grunt calls until they came out with the original Buck Roar. I had always stuck by the Tru Talker as my go to grunt tube by Hunters Specialties. The problem with the Tru Talker for me wasn't the grunt it produced, but rather the lack of ...

These three bucks were found locked up in in this creek in Southern Ohio this year. A tragic end for three really nice bucks.
I have often seen photos of two bucks locked together, but never three like pictured below.
