Well since I am going bow hunting for the big buggers this year also, I thought it would be a great idea to have a decoy. The guys I went with 5 years ago who have a decoy I can't seem to get hold of. I looked into one at Cabelas, and on ebay. They look great but at 120 are a bit pricey. SO today while I was at the sighn makers shop I ased him about that waxed corrigated cardboard. It comes in black and a 4x8 sheet is 40 bucks. Soooooo, I think I am gonna try making one that way. He says it cuts with a knife or jigsay real easy.
I'll let ya know how I make out. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

  Here are a couple I took yesterday morning in the fog. I used 1x1 straping on the back. I think I'll have to put some sort of brace going to the ground also because it blows over in stronger winds. Also have to put some washers on the screws because they pull through the moose. |

Cory I'm going to swing by your house and put a 300 win mag in the side. LOL
You should put it up by the road and get some rubber neckers going by.
It looks great man.

Thanks, hopefully ole Mr. Bull moose thinks she looks good also.
I did have it in my side yard for a bit and my one neighbour ( a hunter also), said he did a second take lol
I showed the pics to my Aunt and said look what was in my back yard. She was sucked right inn until I started laughing.
