Ultimate Predator Decoys

They say imitation is the highest form of flattery. Perhaps that's why using decoys is such a deadly tactic for drawing animals in close. While quality decoys have been around for decades, until now, there's never been a great decoy option for the backcountry hunter. Ultimate Predator Stalker Decoys afford western hunters packable, lightweight, and rapidly deploying decoys that can draw game animals well within range. Not only can their products be used as standalone decoys, but they can also quickly and quietly be attached to a bow for dramatic up close encounters.

Ultimate Predator uses what they call Stalker Spider Wraps, essentially rubber-coated wire wraps, that can be wrapped around and secured to a bow riser in various configurations. With their built-in sight and arrow slot, the decoy can be positioned facing forward on the bow, allowing a hunter to hide behind the decoy, draw, and shoot. Another useful configuration is to position the decoy on the side of the bow, allowing for easier carrying. When the decoy is needed, the bow can simply be held up in front of the hunter like a shield, putting curious animals at ease. If an animal is suspicious and inspecting the decoy, slightly tipping the bow or even using a hand to twitch an ear often calms them. 

Ultimate Predator offers numerous lifelike big game decoys, including elk, mule deer, whitetail deer, antelope, moose, turkey, sheep, and more. To add to their realism, they also offer simple pin-on eyes, offering a lifelike glimmer unmatched by most other decoys. If you're looking for another tactic to get a trophy to come close and stay close, give Ultimate Predator a try. Individual decoys start at $84.95 while combo kits list for $154.95.
