^^^^ You need to get on social media and see for yourself . I've seen more birds with > 1.25" spurs killed the first two weeks of season than I have seen in a LOOOOONG time. The "victory pic" has a decoy spread with a strutter in the back more times than not. Before decoys were cool and a major crutch, we used to have a saying "May equals old birds". In short, we were saying he finally ran out of hens in the month of May and we got him to play the game last two weeks of season, and we actually won a game every now and then. Now, with the use of struuter decoys, those same birds are running away from a harem of hens early April and dying the first week of season. Not good for the local population, or the future of the sport.
