Jeramie Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Are Dove Decoys a wast of cash or a good investement? I was going to pickup a full solid bodys and a wind driven today. However, the handful of times ive been we didnt have decoys and the birds were really on the move. What say ye? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Kind of mixed on the kind you just stick in a tree or on a fence. The mojo is worth every dime IMHO. We have 4 that we stick out near a power line. Towards late morning, if we're not limited out by that time, it really draws in stragglers. There have been many times where a dove will sneak in on you and nearly land on top of them, and sometimes, you can actually see them turn their heads to look at the deeks. Get a couple mojos if you can afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 The wind decoys are on sale right now for $12. I think ill pickup a few of those. We always have wind in Oklahoma and 15mph or faster isnt uncommon! They take 5 to turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Almost got a few of those to supplement the mojos a few years ago, but the reviews on them aren't very good. I think a lot has to do with consistent wing speed. We notice the mojos lose a little effectiveness when the batteries slow down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdhunter39 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 i have 2 wind ones my by edge , that i don't use no more mainly because there was no wind at the time . so i switched to the mojo's ( the battery ones ) , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted August 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Thats the beauty and bad part of Oklahoma, wind all the time. The dead of summer may host a week or two without wind but that is even pretty unlikely. I like the mojo but the price is pretty high. Ive also heard the same thing about the batteries. It can be a constant fight. Walmart also has a batter operated (3- AA) that looks OK. I dont have time to order them or I might give one a try. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Edge-Dove-N-Air/14504274 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
