RE: What should I use for rattling
Sheds work well if fresh, if they are bleached and left in the elimates for a good period, I tend to think they sound hollow. I use a set off a 5x5 & 4x4 from kills a number of years back(like nicohal I use unmatched sets when rattling), they have great tone and have rattled in countless bucks with them. I don' t like rattling bags, b/c they don' t allow me to rake the trees, ground, etc which I have found is a big teaser for mature bucks in my neck of the woods. If I had to choose synthetics it would be the fake horns, as they would allow me to do the same technique I have found works!
