I live in central Minnesota and the only success I' ve had rattling has been in the favor OF THE DEER!!! I' ve turned heads, but mainly just scared the deer away. I have had some freinds in MN who have had the deer to come in, but never had a shot.

I do think Rattling will work in Minnesota, but you must get the deer at the right part of the rut. I also think many parts of MN has poor buck to doe ratios. I think if an area has a 50/50 ratio bucks to does you might have some pretty good luck!!!

Keep trying.......Good Luck!!
