I can relate.
My season started Sept 26 and I shot my first of the season on Wednsday evening.
I had only seen a couple deer the whole time.
I use the buck roar (when I call which is very little) also,it sounds good I guess,never heard a deer grunt for myself.
Good luck with the spot D.J.
Go get him

My boss told me , according to his records, 4 and 5 Nov were the most productive for him!
