I always start out soft--trying to mimic the sound of two bucks just sparring. I don' t think the real fighting for dominance begins until rut, so I never go all out until then. Just roll the bag between your hands for about 10-30 seconds and repeat every 1/2 hour to hour. I try to add a grunt or two before or after I finish rattling.

There is another post in TR' s Tips that has some great info and pointers on calling.

Good Luck

There is some luck in there too. Obviously there have to be some deer nearby to hear the rattling in order to get a response.
