Rattle Bags or Antlers
 
OK guys, what is your preference for rattling? Tell us what you like and why. Also, if you like rattle bags tell us what make you prefer.

Myself, I prefer real antlers. I just like having real antlers, to me nothing sounds better than the real thing.

I use the synthetic ones. They sound a little different than real, but the deer don't seem to mind.

I prefer real antlers, but used rattling bags. The deer respond better in my opinion.

I just prefer the rattle bag. It's easier for me to slip it into my bag/pocket.

i used a rattle bag last year and had great success. But due to the find of two nice sheds i will be using real antlers, just cant beat the real thing!

ive never had any luck with them IMO they just make a lot of unwanted noise.

I have real ones in my backpack, but used the bag the first year. I was able to get a decent buck out if a woods and respond to it. But like any call it is one that can be used to much real easy. After the first year I came across a set of real and have them now. They are a lot of fun and real rewarding to use with success.
