RE: Using a deer decoy during the rut...
To Decoy Or Not Too
Tell you what,if their is no decoy the deer won't come right? If their is something that looks like a babe ,he'll come ,common sense says yes. I've tried decoys now for 4 years and have had failers and have scored good. One thing for sure make sure you have the but of the decoy facing your position so that when the buck comes in downwind you'll be behind him and out of view. This enables you an undetected shot most of the time. The buck will always come to the butt 1st to test for estrus,so have the but closes to you. Good luck and God Bless
