[QUOTE="Uncle Bubba, post: 5768141, member: 2417"] Here's a scenario that I'd like some feedback on. Earlier this week after sitting for several hours and seeing no deer activity, I decided to rattle. Within 5 minutes a small 6 point walked up to check it out, and then he slowly walked off. Fast forward to this morning, sitting silently in my ground blind the same 6 point came cruising by around 7am and another 4 point about 30 minutes later. Around 9am off in the distance around 100 yards away I see a very mature buck easing along the fence line that separates my property from my neighbors. My neighbors property is 100 acres and the lady does not let anyone hunt on her property and I know this buck is not going to cross onto my property. My question is what would you do to get his attention to possibly come where you are. Do you: [LIST] [*]Bleat [*]Grunt [*]Rattle (after already having success with it earlier in the week) [/LIST] I decided to rattle and the buck wanted no part of it. He bolted off like a wildcat and ran across the field & back into the woods. I have rattled for years with success and have never had 1 react the way this buck did. Any thoughts? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
