Blinds and or Decoys.

[HEADACHE]

I am always intrigued by decoys and blinds and trying things that are not so traditional.... fun stuff ....

 

So I was wondering who has used any of the following blinds, decoys, etc to harvest or hunt pronghorn?

 

#1. the Zebu cow

#2. The Ghost mirror blind

#3. Montana decoy (or similar)

 

 

 

Any others I am missing that may be useful???????

 

Thanks boys.

These may look silly, but I've heard they work.

Now, I sure wouldn't use one during a rifle season.

 

Last year I was with a buddy who was archery hunting antelope in NM, and we used a variety of decoys to hide behind and try to approach, and never got very close using that tactic.

I personally like the Montana decoy but I am going to try the Be the decoy next time I get drawn. I think the Ghost blind is an awesome product, and we are going to try it this year on our elk hunt.

 

But had the Montana decoy work on us getting multiple antelopes, using it is all about looking for the right opportunity.

 

Good luck.

I used a couple Montana Decoy's last year on my archery hunt. They worked like a charm. However, when using it in a different unit a few years earlier, it only seemed to make all the antelope run the other way.

 

The biggest reason for the difference, in my mind, was knowing when and how to use it. Trying to set up between a buck and his does is best. I used a buck decoy in combo with a doe, and just the doe by herself. Both worked great in different situations. Can be a pain getting them into the ground in a hurry.

 

On a side note, a buddy let me borrow his Montana cow decoy. I think I liked the Zebu better because it has the slits in it to prevent it from acting like a wind sail in your hands.
