What you are describing sounds very dangerous. Here in PA all forms of stalking a turkey are illegal. I do have an old timer buddy of mine who has been usng fans fastened to old arrow shafts and staked in the ground, as a a decoy for way longer than dekes have been popular. Even wth all of the ultra realistic decoys on the market, he still kills birds regularly with this method. He says they will keep circling the fan trying to get to the head and body, and unable to find it, but they rarely ever spook. Just keep circling in a comical fashion until he shoots. I would never stalk along behind a fan. Thats just begging to become a statistic. Call them in, wait them out. For cryin out loud, i'd rather see someone roll one off the roost than need to kill a turkey so bad they get shot for dressing up like one. Please, don't do that!
