O.k., here my two cents...I think it may be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard putting a gobbler decoy on your head or anywhere near yourself. Makes my skin crawl just thinking about it...The gene pool line of thought is probably valid here. The problem, as I see it, is the principle of seeing what you want to see. Haven't we all seen some inantimant object that we swore was a deer/turkey and realized after some study that it wasn't? I had an incident, hunting, as a young boy, that still scares me in regard to misidentification. That said, I don't know that banning the practice of "reaping" is wise for reasons stated by others. I hope to heaven that I never am involved with someone doing this and "want" to see a gobbler enough to see one where it isn't...I know, I know, no excuse, but it is a documented phenomenon seeing what you want to see when in reality it's something that's not...So, here's my solution...Paint the gobblers head blaze orange. Think that would work? I've heard of guys painting a ball blaze orange and using it to attract gobblers...Just a thought...
