Picked up turkey hunting about 5 years ago. Since then I have had some good success.. and some rough days as well. However, in this limited time I have always used hen decoys. I usually use a pair of decoys with one feeding hen and one upright hen. It seems to work pretty well. I guess I am scarred to used a Tom or Jake decoy figuring I might keep a subordinate bird out of gun range instead of calling him in. I'm sure I am missing some opportunities to kill bird due to this phobia. Could some of you give me some suggestions on when to use tom and Jake decoys.
