Rattling antlers- not just for bucks
How many use their antlers to call in deer other than bucks?
Last season I started tickling the tines together and raking the tree to call in does,and it works on their curiosity pretty good.
Just thought that I would share this.

RE: Rattling antlers- not just for bucks
I carry a set of real antlers along with me in the woods but I use them as a last result once I' ve spotted a buck and he' s not coming to the grunt tube. I' ve rattled a few bucks in but never a doe...the does that have been in the area when I have rattled usually slowly move off. I never aggressively rattle but just do light tickling with the antlers...
