Default 3D Target as Decoy???

I am sure this happens a lot but I just wanted to see who uses their 3D targets as decoy's and brings them to their stands when they hunt?

I had deer come in my yard and look at my deer target. To me they would be way too heavy to lug around but I guess you could do it.

I've used a 3d target legless as a bedded doe in a double decoy set, work pretty well.

We've had our Mckenzie targets thrashed a couple of times out at our property.
We ended up leaving the horns off to prevent future beatings.
