what works better during the rut, a rattle bag or a grunt?

[rudyglove27]

I use both!

[Big C]

I think I am with gman and the doe can.

[gman3186]

if i had to choose between the rattle bag or a grunt call i choose neither i would take my trusty doe in a can

[idahooutdoors]

I like to tie all the calls together. I prefer a set of shed for rattling over the rattle bags. I like to use several grunt calls and bleat cans. I have good luck sounding like a group of deer.

[buckhunter]

I only rattle if a deer is far away and grunt if a deer is close so to answer your questions, yes.

[muskiemaster]

rattle bag with you on the ground adding thrashing in the leaves then followed before your fake fight and after with a couple scattered doe bleats.

[steve182]

If i had to choose just one i'd go with the bleat

[steve182]

Use both, and a bleat can. I've had success even on public land.

[evspence]

On public land neither, with the hunting pressure that just tells'em where to avoid

[Big O]

Ya got to use them together.
Good luck and Good hunting !

That's kinda like asking which fishing lure works best. It all depends on the buck. I've personally had more luck w/grunting than rattling, but I know several people who would say the exact opposite.
