HeviShot Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Someone may have already thought of this.Go get your old camo [realtree] and make you a camo man.Secure it up in your tree stand and by the time season rolls around the deer will not be alarmed at the real thing up in the tree.What do ya think?

VTbowman Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Re: Crazy Idea Tried it. It dont work how you may think. I too felt the presents of a camo blob in your stand for extended periods of time will aclimate the deer to the shape of a hunter. Your movement is what gives ya away not your shape. Not to mention its a pain to hunt with a fake you on stand too. LOL (JK) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutchies Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Re: Crazy Idea I agree with VT. I think it is your movement that gives you away not the fact of someone being there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tyshe17 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Re: Crazy Idea We have used a home made dummy "hunter dave" on one of the properties I hunt. No real difference was seen...real hunters were only picked off by wind or movement...not just a deer seeing the blob...plus we have started using more cover behind and infort of stands...this helped more than anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTbowman Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Re: Crazy Idea If you could place it, or hang it, so the wind moves it and still roughly be "on" stand, it may aclimate deer, but I dont think its worth the trouble... Beside a dude out in the weather for months could stink by hunting season. New meaning of B.O. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyderpancake Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: Crazy Idea I thought of that too, but i agree it is the motion and smell not the shape. I did set it up with a glove extended and put bird seed in it, then switched places and had all kind of burds eating out of my hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
