Tom decoys

[khawk]

I have never hunted with a full strut decoy. Always used the jake and two hen set up. My question is, does anyone use the full strut and should I vary my decoys when I put them out. Is one combination of hens and jakes or hens and struttin tom more successful than the other.

I bought one a year or two ago and use it if I'm on private land with open fields which isn't much. On public land I don't use it but will sometimes use a hen only. If I'm hunting hardwoods I normally don't use anything.

I bought one and will only use it on those hard to kill birds.
It just might be enough to make that tough bird commit.

Watch the video that Stoner posted below "King of the Roost".

That's pretty solid proof that they can work.

I don't hunt fields much either, so I've never tried it.

With the experiences i have had they run into old B-mobile

I use mine when hunting fields. I use a strutting jake with a hen that has bedded down just a few yards in front of him. Works great.
