Default real antlers or rattling bag

Does it make a difference what you use?I have real antlers,I also have a set of fake antlers.There is a difference in sound.I've tryed the rattling bag in the store.They would be easier to carry and they would cut down on movement.To me they don't sound the same as real antlers.Do they both call in deer?I have not had much luck with the real antlers.Has anyone used both?Which would you recommend?Thanks

Experience says they are not too different. Also you less likely to get accidentally shot carrying the rattling bag.

I don't have very much luck rattling in my area but I think that the real ones are the way to go. I think there is a big difference in the sound of the real ones over the ones in the bags..

The one's in the bag work just as good.
A lot easier to carry.
Rattlin doesn't really work well till the rut starts.
