RE: Does anyone have any " rattleing" success stories?
The 1st time I ever tried rattling was in NH .. and I actually rattled in a nice high racked buck .. but he didn' t stick around long as a large bull moose came in (end of September) and kicked the crap out of 2 different pine trees .. that was about 4 years ago .. and was the last deer to come in to rattling that I have seen in NH, but not for lack of trying. I have rattled in 2 different Bull Moose since then, just no deer until this last fall in NY.
I agree w/ Catskill Hunter .. I don' t think it works very well .. but it will work sometimes in the right conditions. I' ll keep mine with me as a last ditch effort to try and turn a buck that would have walked by.
