Now we are going to talk about the items needed for rattling. By far the most important is
the actual antlers that you use to rattle. You can actually buy fake antlers at various
sports and outdoors stores. For the best success it has been proven that actual real antlers
are the best method to use. It's important to keep in mind that you are trying to make
as much noise as possible while rattling. The heavier and the thicker the antlers the
more sound that you can potentially create as you create the rattling sequence. Another
important thing is that some deer, bucks, will end up charging into the territory to
defend it, but most bucks are all little more discreet and sneak into the territory trying
to smell and recognize which deer it is or if there is other danger involved. One important
thing to rattling unlike maybe sitting in a deer stand is a scent neutralizer that neutralizes
scent as the deer approach. Another important thing that you can do is create the smell
of a doe in heat or two fighting bucks in the area which can greatly increase your chances
of both masking your own smell and fooling a buck into thinking it is safe to come in
so that you an get a shot.
