Decoys are hit and miss for me. Once in awhile I put them out.If I use them its usually a jake with 2 feeding hens.

I use them, particularly hunting with new turkey hunters.

The situation determines if I use them or not. If he can see my setup from a good distance I will set out a jake and hen ,but if he's going to pop up in gun range, I just use the Benelli.

Hardly ever use one,....typically don't hunt in a manner that I think makes them a real asset.  I'm sure if I hunted more wide open country where the visual stimulus was important, I would use them more often.
