6" sticks in a bag. I didn't see any 130" plus deer so I must have scared them all away LOL :D.

my ratliing antlers are my first deer every shot, a 2.5 year old 7 point, which had about a 14inch inside spread.

Rattle bag. They can be as loud or as quiet as I want them to be and they pack a lot better than real ones.

I used to use a set of very mature (5.5" bases) medium size 8 point antlers and never had much success with them. Switch to a Hunter Specialties rattle bag a couple years ago and have brought in several nice bucks on multiple occasions. Not sure if it coincidence or not, but I often thought the heavy mass antlers might have been too intimidating.

My old one's were 115" to 120" sheds. They worked excellent!! They brought In more 110"+ bucks then anything else I've ever used. I lost them shed's somewhere and I've been using some tiny shed's that I had laying around. One Is a Couse' deer shed and the other Is a whitetail shed totaling probably 60". My success with these so far hasn't been just to Impressive. I've rattled In 2 bucks In 2 years with them. One was my 140" 8 point I shot last year and the other was a 115" 8 point I rattled In and let go this year. Not to big and not to small are the perfect size to use. Bigger, thicker racks have more of a deeper crack to them, lighter smaller racks sound allot more wimpy like. The biggest difference IMO Is how aggressive you rattle.

A set of 130" from a 8 pt...He got hit by a train...

They work well. The only thing I have managed to rattle up is a spike and the elusive squirrel.
