wish I could spell the sound I make but it works most of the time. have yet to have one run away because of it. they either stopped or kept on moving.

Volume and distance very important no matter what sound you make.

Meeeh for me as well, mainly during archery season though. I believe it only takes a very subtle meeeh to get the job done when the deer is within 30 yards. On the other hand, I had to holler at the top of my lungs to stop a buck running a doe during the rut one time. I hollered only after repeated attempts of meeeh and other subtle noises that were ineffective.

Depends on the deer's attitude. Spooky, floppy eared, rutty, feeding?
I meeeehhhh but it depends. Never spooked one I can remember, even at AEDC.
