RE: Deer decoy?
I only used mine 3 times last year, and they all 3 were probably the best days I had. With out making it a 5 page story........I had the biggest buck I've ever seen walk circles around it and ram it, and numerous and does bucks checked it out and were around it for long periods of time(within 5 yards of the decoy sometimes even sniffing it , and I was 17 yards away.) Needless to say, I'll be hunting with it often this season!
Good Luck!
