I know I'll be stepping on some toes with this, but anyone who uses a turkey decoy doesn't really know how to call a turkey, or have enough woodsman's skills to either. If you aren't capable of calling a gobbler to within 35 yards max, you do without. Decoys for turkey killing are an abomination to my way of thinking. Sorry, but it is what it is.

I used a decoy the second year I hunted, and I had some hens I called in avoid it. My 2nd gobbler didn't like it causing a longer shot than I would have liked. I will not use one again so I'm learning. I have seen gobbler and hen setups bring birds from a long way off in videos, but the less I have to carry the better, so my decoy will stay in storage till someone else wants to try it.
