We are headed to NW Montana on the 16th for a week got all the tools to give it a try.

I’ve seen some really nice bucks around Libby this year from the train.  No shortage of deer in NW Montana this year

 0 for 5 today rattling. Saw a lot of fresh scrapes. Saw a masher buck but too early to shoot a buck I didn't rattle in. Can't wait for the morning!

Rattled in a nice little 4x4 this morning to 40 yards and dumped him. The storm that rolled in last night where I was hunting kicked the rut off hard.

Rattled in a 4x4 in Colville this morning and shot him at 40 yds! He came in at minute 12 looking to see who was fighting!
