It's called a traveling decoy. We shot over it for Youth Heritage days and opening weekend. We'll mail it off to a hunter in Minnesota tomorrow.
Basically it is dedicated by the guy who owns the decoy (me this time). I'm dedicating it to my father Bill Otway and my old hunting buddy Dan Klisch.
Guys along the way tell about their hunts and experiences hunting over the decoy and add pictures of the hunts too. At the end it gets back to me and I'll put it back on my decoy shelf and keep a memory card with pictures of the hunts and info on the card. I'll also keep the paperwork and box with it. Everyone signs the decoy.
Should be fun, we had good luck hunting over it the 3 days we had it out there!
The decoy was one my dad had in his collection.
Next year we will have everyone do the mailing of their own decoy at the same time so everyone has a decoy in route and you always mail to the same guy until it gets back to you.









After hunting this area for 45 years we shot our first ever Speckled geese in BC yesterday so it definitely brought us good luck!


 
No, first I heard of this was a month ago!
Met some great guys online and exchanged some good information and shared a few days hunting and fishing with them.
This is a great way to remember those who influenced us into our outdoor activities and hear about how this got guys out on a hunt and gets them remembering their family, mentors and friends once again!
