That's what they do in Burlington. A person will set up their stand 50 yards from you and all you hear are the horns banging together and the can........nonstop!
My husband always does what the deer do, and that is what I learned. I have my own rattling antlers, which I made him paint black for me as I got busted once and I know it was because the deer snuck up on me and lo and behold....those old white sheds stood out like you wouldn't believe. But, this time of year, he tells me to just spar lightly like the deer. I've not used them yet this year as I'm doe hunting with my bow. Also, during the rut, I don't seem to have any success with them, but I think that's because the big bucks are with their does and I think it just makes them take their doe and head the other direction for fear that a buck might try to move in on them.
I'm still learning and every year I learn more. I've only been bowhunting for five years now. But, good luck to you and everyone and I'll continue to read posts and get advice from my husband and his friends and hopefully will have a better year this year as I've not filled my tag in the past few years.
