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. RO

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?

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