Keep your blind occupied and your game acclimated
Hunting Buddy is an inflatable mannequin-like decoy that can sit in a hunting stand, be strapped to a tree, or placed on the ground to acclimate animals in the area to a human presence.
Benefits:
- Easy to use
- Lightweight and portable
- Effective design helps animals become used to seeing the mannequin as part of their natural surroundings
- Increases a sportsman’s chances of encountering game and thus his chances of making successful kills
- Results in a more productive and enjoyable hunting trip
- Saves considerable amounts of time and effort by eliminating the need for a sportsman to periodically return to a hunting spot to acclimate animals to his presence
Features
- Consists of an inflatable doll or mannequin produced from heavy duty vinyl/plastic material
- Would measure 6 feet tall and 2 1/2 inches wide
- Decoy would resemble a hunter dressed in camouflage clothing and wearing a camouflage hat and mask
- Featured on the sides of the unit would be tabs or loops, which would accommodate a series of locking straps included with the mannequin
- Straps would provide a means of securing the unit to a tree stand or the trunk of a tree
- To use, a hunter would simply transport the unit to his favorite hunting spot several days, weeks, or even months before he wished to hunt
- Upon arriving at the spot, he could install his tree stand, inflate the mannequin, place it in the stand, and secure it to the tree
- The hunter could also place the decoy on the ground within a ground blind
- Over time, animals that passed through the area would become acclimated to the mannequin’s presence so when the hunter returned to his stand or spot, his form would not startle or scare animals away.
