I decided to buy a Montana Elk Decoy. I got the Fred Eichler model, that shows a Cow quartering towards you as you view it. I'm not a gadget freak. Almost on the contrary, as I'm shooting a 30 yr. old bow with fingers, and don't have a range finder and all the other techno stuff available. I did decide to get the decoy though, as it is pretty lightweight and no problem to fit in my pack. I also photograph Elk offseason, and thought it would be fun to mess with, hiding behind it and seeing what all might happen with it.
I never see anyone using these decoys on the Sportsmen's channel, (except for Fred Eichler) using decoys. That surprises me, given the potential for success with them. Yes, they might be a hassle to set up, but I doubt if they would ever spook Elk or bring a negative outcome in their use. (?)
Does anyone in this forum use them? I'd like to hear your feedback.
