He was coming from a long ways away at a pretty brisk pace.

Wish I could get the big boys to commit like that.

Usually that behavior is for the little guys
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

What fun!  Rattle 'em in and take their picture.  That buck was probably expecting a heart shot when he saw you and was like "what the hell just  happened?"  as he walked away in disbelief.

Briefly describe your rattle technique. E.g. 30 seconds loud and hard then wait 5 minutes, or something like that. Thanks.

I can’t divulge all my secrets.  I will say I am unconventional so to speak.  More aggressive than most.
