[QUOTE="AT Hiker, post: 4221347, member: 10019"] IMO hen decoys make sense in open terrain environments, after all you are making a hen noise with the hopes a tom comes in to check it out. Most set ups allow for you to sit back in cover and lure the tom in with calls but sometimes not and a hen deke could help. Full strut decoys on the other hand can prove to be disastrous. Either they can send the turkey running away from you or turn them into a suicide dead run right toward your gun. No calling required, simply put the strutter out. Now the big question is; are Avian X or other pricey dekes worh the price? Im convinced a pink flamingo will work in certain situations, so no...realistic dekes are not "mandatory". But if these avian x dekes are durable, lite weight, easy to use, etc...then sure. Heck, shoot you a hen in the fall. Skin her out, flesh it, borax and drap it over a mannikan and use it next Spring.
