Abstract:

In this article the author discusses what decoys to use depending on the season. The types of decoys talked about by the author are for turkey hunting. The author discusses using three feeding hen decoys in early spring. The author states that this represents a content flock because if the decoys was upright it would be perceived as the flock is alarmed. In mid-spring the author recommends using smaller number of decoys because this is around the time flock break up. The author states that in late spring that hens are nesting and hunters should use hen decoys but also have a Jake and strutter, male decoys, because a male would react to them because it will be seen as competition.
