slickbricky Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 We put out blue heron decoys in our duck decoys to (theoretically) make ducks feel more at ease about the set up. I'm thinking about setting a few turkey decoys around my treestand to make the deer more relaxed. Any opinions/suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Pour out 40 lbs. of corn. That'll relax them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeB Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I've seen deer get agitated by the presence of turkey decoys during spring gobbler and fall seasons. I have had bucks approach decoys and horn them and does snort them spring and fall. At the least it will take their attention from you. Corn gets my vote.

NWHunter Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Good idea Tucker, 40 pounds of corn, 1 feed trough, 10 buckets of water, and a tree stand. You could have deer, ducks and turkeys in one hunt and without leaving your stand. sounds priceless On a serious note, what about using a deer decoy to chill out that dirty old spring gobbler??
