I plan on trying out a decoy this fall for the first time. On one of the farms I hunt the guy has two concrete deer like you see in alot of yards. Its not uncommon for his to see deer around it a few times a year. Keep in mind that they are 10 yards from his front door and sometimes when he wakes up in the morning there will be 2 or 3 deer standing around them eating in his yard. He even had a nice 8 point in velvet standing there last week.
