Default RE: how many of you use deer decoys?

I use a McKensie ' alert' target with push in fork horns. I hunt my own property and have a permanent stand, at the end of the day I just drag the decoy under my stand. I have a nice trail by my stand and set up just off the trail. My stand is about 30 yards from the front and back of the decoy. I have had success at grunting and rattling while using the decoy and the bucks normally approach from behind and will, at some point, go to the head. Almost every buck out there feels dominant over the forky. We have a 3-D course set up in our back yard with 20 targets and last year my target buck got torn up. His legs were broken off where the metal stake up the legs ends. His neck and sides were gouged.
I do use buck urine under the decoy in the woods. Happy hunting, works for me.
