Elk decoys
« on: August 03, 2012, 11:44:44 AM »
I know there are a lot of you that have voiced your opinion about elk decoys. It seems that most commenters are not sold on their necessity.
I want to try one. Any of you dissatisfied elk-decoy-users interested in selling one?

 :yeah: :yeah: I have had a few bulls hang up just out of range numerous times, I am sure if a decoy had been there he would have commited to at least another few steps, the few steps that I needed!!

I have had other bow hunters pull back on my decoy (bowhunting), just so you know. I do not use it all the time.
There are only so many sunrises left.

Today was my lucky day! After searching off and on for the last year or so I finally found a place that still has the Montana Decoy Elk Rump! This after I sent an email to Montana Decoys asking them why they discontinued that line (haven't heard back from them).
READY FOR SEPTEMBER!!

They aren't necessary but they usually don't hurt either.  I have packed one around and used it in setups but have yet to have a bull notice it.
