Default Rattling horns...

I have a large strip of private (no hunting) land that is adjacent to us. I know of several large bucks that run along that creek. I am thinking rattling during early November runs a good chance of pulling a nice buck out of there. Whitetails are the minority here in Colorado there is not alot of guys that get to hunt them as they live in areas that are small and tight, like creek bottoms. The ones that I have seen or taken are "scrapers" busted horns, scars on face etc. I highly dought any of these deer in my area have ever heard "rattling horns" by hunters atleast. My question is does anybody know where I can purchase a nice 4x4 set of shed horns ( for not an outlandish price) or should I just go with the primos or sure shot synthetic horns? Thanks

A synthetic pair or rattle bag will work just fine. You might be able to find some sheds on ebay or something
