Yes, it does sometimes. I have ratted up several deer over the years. So bucks are aggressive enough around here. So of my best luck is when they are seeking. If I see a buck a long way off, I use the horns to call them in. They almost always try to come down wind.
All you need to know is. Dead deer don't grow!

I have had mixed results with the rattling. What I like to do is sit on the north side of a cutover, with a pretty steady north wind to my back. (I know that's just the opposite of all the expert advice) A buck who is curious Wil most likely circle and approach down wind. If you have a good open view, you can catch him before he winds you.

I've had success rattling on bucks of all sizes and ages. I have two full grown ones on my wall that were tricked with " horns". It'll work at the right time anywhere I'd suspect.

I have rattled up dozens of bucks in several counties. I have five on my wall that were rattled in. It dosen't work all the time but it will work from start to finish by adjusting yer technique to the season.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

well, yes I am.... If I see a buck cruise by out of range, or not enough for a shot I WILL hit the horns at him. I killed good eight point bow hunting one afternoon, set back off a big greenfield. He walked across the field prolly 300 yards from me so I hit the horns LOUD till he stopped and looked. 30 mins later he slipped in straight to my tree..and an arra. Never let a buck get by you without rattling at him a little.

If one doesn't come in I figure there wasn't one in earshot to hear it.Right after the bucks split up and start rubbing heavy a couple of weeks before the rut seems to be prime time for horns.
