I'm not a fan of decoys to start with.   This one even takes the risk factor up a notch or two.

They are a little late in the game! A few years ago, someone came out with a fan that clipped to the barrel of your gun! Surprised someone wasn't killed then!!

Next maybe they can make one that can be worn as a cap to make sure you can get shot!

:agreed: I wouldn't even feel comfortable using this on a private piece of property. Every year we catch people hunting on our posted property and it only takes one time. To each his own though but if anyone does decide to use this method, I hope they do it as safely as possible.....

If someone is stupid enough to try this they need to be took out of the gene pool. Now what would be neat is to strap it to a RC truck and drive it around. :fud: :OGani:

Where I hunt I rarely see anyone and I dont even like putting a Jake Deke out. This is crazy.

Very dangerous!!!!  And most certainly not how I hunt or want to hunt the king of spring!   I'll sit and play the game and walk out empty handed before I try something crazy like that!

God bless

My dad was an old time turkey hunter who died just a few years after turkey decoys came out. He believed just using a single hen decoy was risky. He would think many of todays hunters were totally nuts. Have to say I would agree.

A very dangerous activity in my opinion.

Thanks,

I agree 100%.  I've only been turkey hunting a couple years but I've hunted my whole life. This just takes the fun out of it. Especially if you get shot in the process.

I bet 90% of the time I go hunting I don't carry anything but a few mouth calls and a gun. No vest or chair. Mostly because I feel like it ties me down so to speak. I just can't get around as quite and easy as I like when carrying a bunch of stuff.  I couldn't imagine having to carry around 2 or 3 decoys also. That's the main reason I don't use decoys. But this is very nuts. It won't be long someone will get hurt or killed doing this.

I'm with Eric James on this one. I think if every turkey hunter would devote at least one spring season to hunting without decoys, he would discover calling and woodsmanship skills he didn't realize he had. It is a very good way to make yourself a much better turke hunter. I did not say more successful but a better hunter. Those learned skills will pay off for many more springs to come.

I have only been turkey hunting 2 years now and also agree this seems totally nuts BUT if I was farmer with a 1000 acres and I was hunting over a field in the middle of my land...I can see how one might feel this is not really that unsafe. Just saying....you don't really see these guys going through the woods sneaking around with this thing...more in open fields which I would hope are blocked off to public hunting.

Here's the shoot and scoot by Primos. This was discussed last year, but these guys are complete idiots.

deg'GUM ...  wild stuff...  no WAY i'm putting a deke on the barrel of my gun; i've had my dekes beat to crap -- many times, SO QUICK that I could barely shoot the birds off 'em before they ripped 'em to shreds...  so, ya...  i'll *pass*...  haha!  :)

I don't even understand why they make these!!! I mean they make loads that you can kill turkeys at 60+ yards this is just one more thing that as soon as someone gets hurt or even worse killed the Anti-hunters will be all over it. :TrainWreck1: :fud: :OGani: :angry9:

I'm surprised it's Primos making it, to be honest.

I agree,even when i kill a turkey i walk out of the woods with it in my pouch on my vest and not slung over my shoulder,you never know what could happen.

 :emoticon-animal-005: They use them on private ranches with a whole crew filming. In the woods this is a disaster waiting to happen. I am very surprised a reputable company actually is marketing this, UGH.
