Decoyed a Doe! lol
Well I know it's risky buisness, but the land I have to hunt this year doesn't hold many deer. It has a few bucks that pass thru and have not caught one doe on my trail cams in months. So I set out a flambeau ready doe decoy in hopes to grab the attention of any deer that might show themselves in this grass field. This property is bordered by corn on two sides. I am set up on a small strip of woods mostly buckthorn that borders a pond directly behind me. I set up the decoy 20 yards in front of me.
1 hour before dark a Largedoe and yearling jump the fence into my field 100 yards away. She sees the decoy right away. Eats a bit glances up at the decoy does this a few times then decides to come check out it out. On a slow walk then she would stop put her nose to the air but the wind was perfect blowing diectly from behind her. I knew she as going to work all the way downwind. She passed the decoy 10 yards out and still wasn't to spooked. Just as shewas broadside,I released and made a good shot. She went about 50 yards out of the field and heard her crash. It was a great feeling as this new land is making me work and put alot of time in just fora glimpse of a deer. I passed on a velvet 7 pointer on opening day 2 weeks ago, that was the last deer I saw. ![]() |

RE: Decoyed a Doe! lol
lol Yeah not sure what she weighed guys, she was large though couldn't get her up on the wheeler hardly by myself. She was beefed up alot of fat when I quartered her. Kinda surprised so early in the year. Although you can't tell she is field dressed in the pic.

Nice photo! A lot of us could take lessons from that pic, on how to take game photo's. I think I might try my decoy, I too have had little deer activity in my neck of the woods. No pics on my trail cam for almost a week.
