A friend of mine just sent me a picture of this decoy from bass pro that has wheels and an rc chassis  ::)
He asked what the turkey hunting world has come to?
Of course he jokadly asked if I wanted one . Lol
I said if he got one he better get me one so we could race and demolition derby !
So for a measly 600 bucks you and your hunting buddies can hunt in the morning and race in the afternoon  :TrainWreck1:

So what is this turkey hunting world coming too?

What's the horsepower on that bad boy and the range on the contoller?Might be just what I need to bring me a cold water  from my truck after climbing a couple appalachian ridges. If I take the decoy off could it carry a small cooler?

I'm holding out for the drone hen.   I can fly her out of the tree.   Surely a gobbler will follow.  If not I could field hop and find a gobbler and fly her out to him and walk him back to me.   Probably won't be much longer and the market will be flooded with them.
If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

I dunno. I could see myself on a slow day calling and "working" him slowly into range and then taking him out at close range with a well placed shot thru the transitor. Might be a bugger to pack out and clean tho

Only 150 yards range , so you can't get to far away from the coolers  :'(

I saw this in the printed catalog  :angry9:. The $300 Instigator was prominently displayed on the page. Funny thing about it though... it doesn't seem to exist on the "web" ???

Are they advertising while not advertising at the same time?

Here is the only video I could find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9lwfsvZEBE

Just don't hunt with people that are unethical in your oppinion. Pretty simple. Lots choose success over work and I say let em. I am not wasting the few days I get to hunt dealing with childish behavior. Call me what you want  but at least I stand for something. Unethical and legal crossed lines a long time ago in my opinion but that's my opinion. Quite frankly I am embarrassed by the modern hunters. Taking care of our resources means nothing. It's all about the killing. Great impression we are making as "hunters". And the thing is the fine folks in charge of marketing of a lot of hunting gear couldn't give a crap less about the sport in hunting. Long as they make a buck they are happy. Ethics be damned.

Why wait?  Just glue some feathers to one and put a head off of an old decoy and put it in a nearby tree the night before.  Put a speaker on it that cackles and makes wing beats and your set.  Why wouldn't one commit to that? ;)
