Default Pre rut deer tactics?

I'm going to be hunting Fulton County, Il the last week of October this fall and would like to try some new tactics. The farm I used to hunt used to be pretty good no matter when I hunted - opening day thru gun season. I had the deer patterned extremely well there but I can no longer hunt that farm. I will be hunting with some buddies with an outfitter the last week of Oct. and do not know the property at all so I will be at the outfitters mercy. Just looking for some pointers to put the odds more in my favor. Is this a good time to start rattling, grunting, using decoys, etc.? What works best for you guys during this time?
