I've had the best luck with a bleat can. This year alone I had a six pointer come out within 5minutes from the last time I tipped the can. That was the first week in November. Sunday morning at 6:53 I had a small 8pt. come into the can. I filled my buck tag with him on public land.
During the rut I always use the bleat can and I always draga scent line to my stand to make it more realistic. I SWEAR BY THE CAN. Three years ago I killed another 8pt. from the very same stand and probably the very same time. If you hit the bleat can right at the time you can see well enough to shoot, that seems to be the best time to pull one out of the brush.
