Default RE: Using a deer decoy during the rut...

Ive been taking mine out for the last couple weeks,, started off using it as a buck then removed the antlers,, but have had none come to it,, ive had two bucks pass within 50 yards of it and they never even saw it,, maybe one will notice it sooner or later, if i dont get tired of packing it to and from the stand with no results..

If you set up your decoy as said facing away with some doe estrus ,you'll be amazed at how well they work.

I was thinking of buying one of the cardboard cutouts and putting it in the saw grass on the edge of the woods---I am too cheap to buy expensive decoys!!
