older042 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 just looking for some decoy tips and what you all use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeBugg Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Cherokee sports inflatables. I normally carry a feeding hen and a jake with me. Position the jake behind the hen....it can sometimes upset a gobbler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowaholic Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I'm a huge advocate for a full strutter and two hens. One feeding and one on the ground. I use a real tail fan in the strutter (Pretty Boy). I got one of those Avian hen decoys and she is PURRRDY! My buddy got the funky chicken jake so were going to try it opening day with my spread.

josephmrtn Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 feeding hen inflateable... from walmart... thinking of picking up an alert hen and possibly a funky chicken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowaholic Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Also, face the Tom (or jake) decoy facing you so the Tom will come closer to get in front of the decoys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twax10 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I'm a little skeptical of jake decoys, I've seen jakes run off toms many times. But I've heard a lot of success stories with them too so who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYSuperSportsman Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I used an avian X jake and feeding hen during my youth season hunt! They worked awesome!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeBugg Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I take a jake with me but normally a hen or two does the trick. Sometimes i dont use any at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
