Whitetail Hunting

Whitetail Hunting In Food Plots with a TailTRICK Deer Decoy

Every autumn “Food Plot” Frank enjoys planting food plots at his hunting club and looks forward with great anticipation to seeing the real fruits of his labor: a monster buck. Frank loves whitetail hunting and he hunts a lot in the late season and he knows that most of the food plots have already been shot over and that the monster bucks are now more cautious. If Frank were to put a TailTRICK Deer Decoy (or better yet, multiple TailTRICK Deer Decoys) in the food plot, he could send the message to the deer just inside the woods that “all is safe and clear of danger.” TailTRICK Deer Decoy’s swishing tail speaks the monster buck’s language and will draw them out of the woods earlier. Now Frank can get the shot that he’s looking for before dark.

Whitetail Hunting in Open Woods with a TailTRICK Deer Decoy

Eddie “The Edge” is a better hunter than what he thinks he is. Eddie hunts 72 acres of woods on the edge of town where there’s lots of whitetail hunting pressure and minimum deer density. Because the woods are mostly a transition area for deer moving from bedding to feeding areas, Eddie is often just out of range when deer move through. Eddie is looking for something to give him an “edge.” By placing a TailTRICK Deer Decoy strategically in the open woods, on ridges or in hollows, Eddie can now “visually call” whitetail deer close enough to reach them with his shotgun. Duck hunters have been using duck decoys this way for years. Now Eddie can too with “The Edge”

Whitetail Hunting with Grunt Calls and TailTRICK Deer Decoys

“Ole Grunt Call” George has mastered the art of scouting and knows where to find the bucks. He prefers whitetail hunting in a transition zone and grunting deer to him when they are moving. Calling bucks in gives George a real sense of accomplishment but he is often busted by approaching bucks seeing him before he sees them. By placing a TailTRICK Deer Decoy not far from his calling position, George can quit grunting sooner and give approaching bucks a visual fixation away from his shooting position. Now George can do the busting.

Whitetail Hunting Trophy Bucks with TailTRICK Deer Decoys

All of his friends wish they were as good at whitetail hunting as “Trophy Buck” Tom. Tom loves to compete but his biggest competitor is his self. If Tom doesn’t shoot a trophy buck every season, he feels that he has failed. Tom hunts trophy bucks but getting a shot before dark is often difficult. If Tom would strategically place a TailTRICK Deer Decoy around the oak trees just inside the woods, on the downwind side of the food plot, he could attract trophy bucks in close before dark so that his whitetail hunting season might end with the kind of personal success that makes him proud.

Whitetail Hunting, TailTRICK Deer Decoys and Bow Hunters

Only Billy “Bow-Hunter” knows how good a hunter he is. Often, in whitetail hunting with a bow, Billy is up close and personal with lots of monster bucks but he doesn’t always get a shot with his bow. If he could just get the monster bucks to come closer to his tree stand and linger for only a moment, others would know what Billy knows. By placing a TailTRICK Deer Decoy directly upwind from his tree stand about 50-60 paces and placing scent near the decoy setup he could get a shot when the monster bucks circle downwind of the decoy to identify it.
