Dazv Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Hi guys hope your all well over the past year I’ve had good success with a buttolo for calling muntjac to the point where I’ve often had to shout to stop them from running into me. However I unfortunately lost my buttolo so I went to buy a replacement when I noticed I could get a cherrywood adjustable call for nearly half the price. We are expecting out first baby this month so any chance I get to save a bit of money I take at the moment. I was pleased with the call when it first arrived however it’s almost comical the only thing I’m able to get it to do is make muntjac bark at me but never come in for a shot. I’m sure if I had my buttolo all of these deer would be in the chiller. had anyone found the same? Maybe I’m doing something wrong. Hindsight’s a great thing I should have juts spent the extra money in the first place! thanks again guys much appreciated Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Best Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Might be down to technique? I tried a cherrywood and couldn’t get on with it (no success at all). The Buttolo works just fine for me. I blamed myself for the Cherry wood failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Yep. magic little things Buttolos, I have called foxes, munties, coyotes, hogs, javelina, bobcats (had a bob almost climb into the seat with me once before I saw it) along with whitetail deer and our roe deer. Munties are funny and sometimes they just want to be awkward and bark. Have not used one of those cherrywood calls, used a number of other similar calls but in my view nothing comes close to a Buttolo. Funnily I had a Swedish client who insisted you give a Buttolo a hefty almost violent sqeeze producing a 'raspy squark. I was amazed that he pulled in a couple of roe in short order..... that's how we use them in Sweden he said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazv Posted October 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Thanks for the replies guys! Maybe it’s looking like I should have juts bought the buttolo again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
