I have attached a link to my blog that will walk you through the steps needed to make your own decoy fan. Cheap and easy, all you need is 1/2hr, a turkey tail, and duct tape. Its durable, weather resistant, repairable and best of all it rolls up to fit your pack :happy0064:
Enjoy

Thanks much. Easy explanation.
Yes super easy. I have tried to design durable and packable fan holders with little luck Then yesterday at work I saw duct tape, and I wonder?
DUH!! Sometimes we over think the simple. Of course there goes my patentable $ making gizmo that was going to change the world and make me rich, super rich :blob10:
Will definately work good, espically if you dont over do the duct tape, actually i used gorilla tape cause thats what i had on hand. Also the old addage if enough is good more is better does not apply. My fault, thanks for the info
I have been using this method pretty heavy this year and its working well. You WILL have to redo the fan periodically because rolling up in a pack and unrolling does mess with the feather positions. The turks haven't cared but I do. But a few minutes and some tape your back in business and can all be done at the truck.
Great idea!
