anyone use a deer decoy? I have used turkey decoys to calm the deer b4
I remember back when I was in high school, a friend and I went to his dad's deer camp near Monticello. On the way someone had made a cutout plywood deer with glowing eyes in a field near a pond. When we were heading home in the daylight you could see that it was full of holes.I had a doe decoy set up last year. I had a decent 2.5 year old buck stop and stare it down for 20 seconds or so. They can sure stop a deer and buy you some time to get settled on one.
I don’t fool with the full sized 3D decoys. Way too much bulk.I just usually head out mid morning with a rifle, plop down under a tree, nap a bit then wake up and shoot a deer. Carrying all that stuff in the woods is too much work.
Do you have a link to this decoyI don’t fool with the full sized 3D decoys. Way too much bulk.
My decoy is merely a tri-fold piece of plastic board with a photorealistic deer on both sides. I get it out and set it up when the kids hunt with me. It does a good job at stopping the deer and gives them longer to get settled on them as compared to when I bleat or whistle to stop them. I do this on some well policed private property and it’s set up to where it doesn’t draw gunfire in our direction.
