Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Are you in favor of Mechanical Decoys?

Default Are you in favor of Mechanical Decoys?

I have often wondered about those decoys uck hunters use that the wings rotate or it dives or vibrates.

Do you think the same shold be allowed for our turkey decoys?

Is this ethical hunting?

If it is legal I say go for it.

Like baiting .

Whats the difference from pee scent to lure in deer and a pile of corn its still lureing them in.

Is either way ethical?

What do you all think ??

Feather-flex decoys and other types of foam deeks move with the wind. Some have a string tied to the head, and as you yank on the string the head moves up and down.
Some come mounted to a track, and you can make them move in either direction. I agree, as long as it's legal, I don't see it being un-ethical.
