Careful where you put it or someone will shoot Em
Careful where you put it in relation to where YOU are,...or someone will shoot YOU! (i.e.,...NEVER set up these realistic decoys where you can't see anybody that might be approaching from directly on the other side of the decoy from you!)
First hand experance in just that kind of situation, someone shooting your decoy. In 2009 first time every in Florida, I was hunting on public ground. Second day out it was suppose to rain all day so I went a mile and half in and set up on a narrow strip of land about 60 yards across between two swamps. I had my brothers cheep rubber Jake decoy set up in the middle of a little clearing. Guy came running and gunning (impossible to do with out bumping into someone) and shot my decoy. He felt like , I was laughing because it was my brothers decoy, and he backed out on the trip. And I was happy I took into consideration to be off to the side set up in the swamp. I do own the DSD flock but the Jake has seen very little public ground, only the hens. The new jake is very tempting, but since I do not use the old one that much I will have to pass this time. But with out a dought that new DSD Jake will be a killer.
