I've done it a couple of times on smaller bucks. All Depends on the deer and timing I guess.

I rattled in a nice once one time taking a Summit tree stand off a tree. I thought he was going to run me over. Crazy! Lol I had a young buck come to me putting a treestand on one time…I ain’t ever really had a proven sequence of rattling although I’ve done it every year sporadically during rut and i did kill one but can’t say for sure if he heard it or just cruising thru cuz it was about 10 mins after I did it

I have. It’s amazing how they can pinpoint the location. Almost had to shoot one in self defense because I was standing on the ground beside a tree and he came directly to me from my right side which was blocked by the tree. We were in 2-3 year old clearcut and I never knew he was in the world til he stepped on a limb about 30 feet from me. This was around lunchtime during a full moon in January. My cousin was with me for that one and we still say that was the best hunt we’ve ever had.

Tried it steadily for a decade in all kinds of weather and different times of season. Not once did I ever have any luck at all. Never even saw a deer. Haven’t picked up a set of horns in well over a decade and don’t plan to again.

Anytime I see a buck this time of year I always try and check his temperature....If he is a good ways out I hit the horns to get his attn....If he stops, tickle them a little and pick up your grunt....Play with them a little when you see them, Some areas of the country deer respond different, in other words what I mean is that I've hunted different areas and states, and in some cases and places they can be very vocal and sometimes not( No response)...Does grunting at their little ones sound different, sometimes bucks will come in right to a short quiet grunt just looking for another deer...I had one hear my grunt call one morning after I seen him and he immediately bristled up and start rubbing trees pissed off...I had my back to a gas line ROW, where I could shoot out to 30yds or so but I was tucked in the woods on the top of the same ridge where I could see down the ridge and shoot out to 40 or so a pretty nice 7 pointer crossed over the top of the ridge I was sitting on one morning and I hit that little grunt call to see what he would do, well. he heard the grunt and changed course and started picking his way right to me, he stopped a couple of times while I was playing with him and all of a sudden he blew up and started walking stiff legged right to me, right under the tree I was in and walked right past me... licking his nose repeatedly all bristled up and thats when I said WTH.... ... I looked behind me then and seen what had gotten his attn...It was another buck slipping up that ROW, unbeknownst to me.....Well the buck in the ROW seen the buck standing under my stand and he bristled up too....It was on then....They went straight to each other and clashed antlers and fought for about no more than 30 seconds...split up and walked away from each other in different direction..... I sat there and thought" Damn Andrew, you just caused that little fight there cause if I hadn't of grunted and got the one bucks attn he would have just walked on over that ridge like he was going and they would have never seen each other....lol....Anyway, That was a pretty cool experience even though I never shot an arrow.....
Did you know that Beer Nutz are over a Dollar...and Deer Nutz are under a Buck...

I was trying to rattle up a buck I let walk out of sight huge 7pt out of range for the bow in the rut. Few minutes later there’s a nice 8 looking for the other bucks but he didn’t come into range either and wasn’t nearly as big.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!
