RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

I think the people at all these companys just come up with new "stuff" every year it's called job security!
I was crazy enough to buya Hazel Creek full body mount Hen ! It works great, but it is bulky to carry...

RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

We use Pretty Boy, and they've worked great, only thing is, if I'd do it over again, I'd get a Jake decoy, because sometimes, our Toms get scared from seeing another Tom decoy, even when there's three of them together, talk about being cowardly, lol. I bet they wouldn't get scared of a Jake decoy, though, I'd find that hard to believe, honestly.

Just use a jake fan as the fan for the pretty boy, should fix your problem. Ive done this before and it works great.

RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

hambone,
Are you saying that the B-Mobil will make them run in every time??
You don't think Pretty Boy won't make'em run in?? Or a home made one like JW! made won't make them come running???

Dotheyalways come run in every time when they see a decoy in strut??? The answer is NO... They don't. Sounds to me like you have a predetermined mind.

no, wasnt saying that at all, just said B-Mobile brings them running FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN..not discounting other decoys at all...I liek the real turkey fan and "mobility" of the B-mobile..i have never killed butone turkey with a decoy..how's that? I have killed many, but only 1 with decoy, and it was a B-Mobile...tail was blowing in the wind, he was "moving", gobbler came in very fast and angry and was about to jump him when I lowered the boom...friend of mine used him and a big tom literally sprinted full speed to teh decoy and hit it like a linebacker...happened so fast my friend shot over him and big boy got away...

I'm sure others work just as well, I basically prefer NO decoy...99.9% of the time...but it did make for an interesting hunt

RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

guys check out the new one made by Ol Tom http://oltomturkey.com/ot337.php

RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

I am stuck with the same decision. I didn't know which one to get the Pretty Boy or the B-Mobile. That OL'Tom decoy also looks good. Makes it tough to decide which one.

RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

It all depends one hundred percent on the situation you are in and the bird. I had the B-mobile scare off a couple of gobblers but I feel that it was because they had their butt's kicked before. We did end up harvesting one of the birds later and he did have battle scars.

RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

I have been watching this thread trying to make the same decision. I will buy one...just which one? Sour01 had great success with the b-mobile last year. Yet, I hate to carry that thing around. That Ol Tom Casanova looks very good to me. It looks like it folds down pretty tight. Their other stuffon thier website looked like they are a "detail" type company. I will probably order one next week and let you guys know...ok....so I guess I am decided. Thanks NE Owl! There goes 80 bucks!

RE: B-Mobile or Pretty Boy

If it's like the rest of the equipment from 'Ol Tom,it will be excellent!!
