Haydel's NT-02 Non-Typical Buck Call for Whitetail Deer | Inhale-Grunt Design

Overview

The NT-02 buck call from Haydel's Game Calls redefines a classic deer grunt by using an inhalation-driven mechanism. Built on the renowned DG-87 concept, this model prompts you to inhale to generate the grunt sound, which can reduce moisture and cold-related issues that sometimes affect mouth-blown calls. Its compact form and fully rubberized surface contribute to a quieter, more durable feel in the field, while a design refined with sonograms of live deer adds a touch of authenticity to your calling sequences. Made in the USA, the NT-02 reflects Haydel's long-standing dedication to quality, field-tested performance, and dependable craftsmanship.
