decoys?

[Guest kscumminsdriver]

I've used my 3D target as a decoy in the past with success but it's awfully cumbersome to pack in and is really showing some wear and tear. I'm looking for something a little easier to use and have basically narrowed my search to the Montana Decoy or the Renzo's Decoy... anybody have any experience with either of these decoys?? leaning towards the Renzo because of price...

Re: decoys?

I too have used my 3D, sinces its all I had, and they do work.

I am bumping this up to hear the others respond since I am interested too.

Re: decoys?

I used the Renzo buck and doe in Ohio last year. I'll give in to them for the ease of carrying them in the woods. But, for success with them, is another story. I had a doe on the second evening of my hunt, go absolutely nuts for over an hour. I never got a shot at her, she didn't come within 20 yards of the decoys. On the last day, I had only the doe out, since the bucks were in full rut. I had a 100+ inch 8 point stop dead in his tracks and start to head the other waywhen he saw her. Yes, I did pay attention to scent and cover scent on the decoy. I had left them outside for a couple of weeks prior to my hunt and they stayed outside the whole time up there.Your more than welcome to them, I'll won't use them again. I've got 2 doe's and 2 of the bucks, you can have them all for 50.00 and I'll pay shipping.

That's the main reason I don't use one.
