Decoy Success
« on: September 14, 2015, 05:55:15 AM »
Spotted 5 bucks as they were making their way down a fenceline. Snuck over to where I thought they'd come down through. I set up the Poison Arrow Doe Decoy on my bow quickly. As they came within range of about 20 yards I slowly stood up and drew back. To my suprise they didn't see me draw back as the decoy acted like a small "blind" for me. The buck that I shot came within 5 yards of me and looked right at the decoy. I had about 5 seconds of time to focus on aiming right behind the deers shoulder as he was so focused on the decoy...smoked 2015 buck!

A success story using one of my decoys.
