I am assuming you are kidding, right?
Nope
Rattling loud enough to hear from 100yds is laughable?
Yes it is.
Ask every member here how many buck fights they have seen in the woods that were so vicious that they could be heard from 100 yards away............then compare that with how long each and every member here has spent in the woods and you will find that percentage to be under 1%. Yet guys go out and rattle like these fiere battles are taking place every 15 minutes all day long......it' s rediculous to think a deer would believe that is normal. Now imagine every guy up in his tree rattling like a maniac and you have cracking and rattling coming from every direction all day long.............yea, that usually happens in the woods
In the proper setting rattling is a good tool.............99% of us will never see that setting unless we buy a video.
We do all like to pretend we are in that world though
