Picked up a big male last Wed. evening - this one really showed the value of a decoy. He started to circle downwind at about 500 yards until he saw the wounded woodpecker flapping away on a fence behind us. Came right in upon seeing the decoy.

Can you post a pic of the decoy? I want to do some more calling this winter and would like ideas.

Had to be carefull with the wording of my request, pic and pecker somehow did not go well together. blush grin grin

Ranger-how do you guyz like the 204? Used it on any lopes yet?

Is there any bullet out there for a 20 that would be hard enough to use on lopes with rib shots?

Thx

Dober

also do you have any pics of the deke?

Just took the pics off of their website - great decoys and seem pretty well made. We use all three of these depending on the location/ground cover/etc. Woodpecker is great anytime we set up along a fence or near a tree, plastic bunny gets the nod in grazed down areas and the furry bunny is the one when grass is tall and there's nothing to attach the woodpecker to. Here's the website Edge by Expedite

Couldn't say on the .204 - he just picked it up and hasn't shot anything but factory Hornady ammo through it.
