don't overdo it. I go about 30 seconds total, start with a few light ticks, then a few seconds of heavy rattle, then some light ticks. try to emualte a buck fight...some light ticks then big hits while getting engaged and locked in, adn then some tick sounds while locked in wrestling, then a quick hit during the release, then its over. Space rattles about 30 minutes apart, try not to do it near the time of loud sounds that would normally throw deer off like really close dog barking, shots, low flying planes, etc.

if it works, be ready for quick shots as the deer will come in quick and nervous, andmay move through just as quick.
