Beech Grove,In,
Would late season be to late to use a decoy?
Was thinking to put them at ease and maybe draw them into the field to feed earlier?
second question if use one do would you but regular doe scent on it? not Doe in Heat.
of would you use a non dominate buck scent.

Thinking that the 3d target could get some field time as a decoy.

the things I think about in the stand.

I personally wouldn't try it. It may bring does in, but in my experience, once they figure out it is a decoy, they bolt. It seems like the bucks come in last to the field. So if the does bolt, the bucks will hang up until dark. If your goal is to put some meat in the freezer, it may work. Part of the fun though is trying new things. What's the worst that could happen? You spook them and have to let it calm down for a few days. I would go with straight doe urine. I would like to hear others opinion on this. I had success earlier this year getting a buck to come in to a decoy way later in the season than most would have tried.
