Anyone else into calling & rattling blacktails

Antlershed:
Cool, thanks Charlie. I will have to give it a try here sometime soon.

stumprat:
I have alot of deer around the house, so I experiment  alot. I find that bucks are establishing dominance as soon as the velvet comes off. We usually rattle about 20 yards inside the timber. The bigger bucks 9 times out of 10 come in through the timber.If you have a ground blind so much the better. I start off slow & light.......many sets, then grunt 2 or 3 times then really work the rattle. Usually takes 4 or 5 sets to get a response for me. Doe bleats have worked for me but only during the rut. I also have the best luck with a rattle bag, I think because they are louder.

MountainWalk:
Never had any luck rattling for blactails. Even back in AR with whitetails, I never had much more one or two times that bucks showed up.

deerslyr:
Did you have much luck during the late muzzy season? Ive wanted to try it but thought it was a lil to late.

Houndhunter:
i rattled in a deer last year late buck, my first one. couldnt tell if it had horns, if it did they were small. but anyways its kinda of an interesting thing to do, might try it again :dunno:
