Hunting with a Decoy

Watch Zach talk about proper decoy placement.

A decoy can be a real asset when calling elk.  Primarily in focusing the elk’s attention away from you and giving them the confidence to walk into bow range and present a shot.  They can be cumbersome and difficult to pack though.  Zach walks through proper decoy placement and showcases a low impact decoy.

A widely published western big game writer and successful western big game hunter, Zach has taken multiple species in nearly every Rocky Mountain state. Zach is an expert elk caller and is highly regarded in the Western Hunting community for both his calling and abilities to successfully hunt elk on public land. He is an accomplished deer hunter as well, and enjoys hunting with both a rifle and archery equipment. He is exceptionally knowledgeable about gear and enjoys sharing his expertise to help others succeed.
