deer decoy

[zanman]

Hi Everyone

I'm curious how many people use them and if anyone uses them next week during gun week..
Also any good place to buy them and make or brand ?

I started using them back in the early 90’s. Hint get a feeding decoy. I have a mojo,it fools lots of hunters. The regular decoys,I usually put a small white feather in the ears.

I have just started with a mojo from CDN Tire It takes their eyes of you and the walk straight in. So far all Does.
Before I had one I could call in a buck but he would not come close enough for a shot with by bow, that's why I decided to try a decoy so he could at
least see a doe to respond to.

the scar decoy from primos and the boss buck- are to of the very best to use. Under the right circumstances they can draw in some very large bucks. I would refrain from using it this week-just because of all the people out in the field. Let things die down for a couple of days the following week and if you still have a tag to fill use it over a food plot or at the edge of a field where it can draw bucks in from a long way off. Good luck

Been using them for a decade.or so. Great for drawing in deer to your location during archery season. Be careful if you plan to leave them out overnight as they often get attacked. This one was anchored with tent pegs and metal rod which you can see if you look carefully.

Primos fawn worked last year. Brought in yotes, does and bucks.

Are you ever concerned that someone might shoot at a decoy. I'm just wondering about the safety factor. I think it would be safe enough during archery but not sure for gun seasons.

That's what I was thinking. A buddy has used one successfully but with all the wahoos driving around during rifle you would want it in a spot that couldn't be seen from the road.

So would people say it's still worth it for this time of year ?
I'm going to continue to bow hunt ? Also and good ideas where to buy or doe or buck decoy?
