None that I'm aware of yet. Primos was supposed to release one but I've not seen it yet.

 

After reading about different decoys there are 2 models I'm particularly leaning towards. The Foxpro Black Jack and the Primos Sit N Spin. The main reason for buying the Black Jack would be because it can be plugged in to my Alpha Dogg and controlled remotely, which would be nice so that it's not drawing attention while setting up. A common complaint, however, appears to be the lack of ruggedness when trying to stick it into hard or frozen ground.
The Sit N Spin does not offer remote capability (a real minus IMO) but it seems to have more satisfied users in regards to being well built. Do any of you guys have educated opinions on these, or yet another option? The Mojo Critter looks interesting but doesn't appear to be easily packed into a knap sack.

 

I have the sit-n-spin and like it very much it packs very small (fits in the turkey box call pouch in my vest) and if you want a longer stake just get a small piece of all thread and a coupler nut and you can double the length. The adjustable speed is the best part.

 

So, you don't think it's a big deal not to be able to control it remotely?

 

No, I dont.

On a decoy I think it should run all the time, you may have it turned off just when a coyote is looking that way and then it isnt doing any good.

 

Good point.

 

Another plus, walmart sells them for $19.99

 

As for movement (or lack thereof), I've been very dissatisfied with rabbit decoys such as the Quiver Critter or Featherflex Rigor Rabbit. They just don't exhibit much movement at all, especiallly the Rigor Rabbit. Looking for something a bit more eye-catching.

 

Hmmm, it's sounding even better.

 

I wonder if that's a local price for you? They're $29.97 online.

 

I dont know, I think its on sell, I was just there a few days ago. But Weasel had one for sell on here for around $25 he may still have it.

 

I'm a little late on this thread but, Natchez Shooters Supplies (800)251-7839, has the best price I've found on the Sit n Spin. $22.99 Be sure and call in for it and request it to be shipped USPS instead of UPS. On-line orders can only go UPS and shipping runs over $17. (US Postal Service cost around $7) I looked everywhere around by me and no stores have these decoys on hand. The worst thing I've found about this decoy so far is, the name. Slightly awkward walking in to a dozen places asking for a Sit n Spin!

 

I have used a mojo critter. It is a nice decoy. I rarely use it though. My concern is setting it up where they can see it.... lends it self to them seeing me too.

 

Dirty, that has been my concern exactly.

 

A decoy will bring them in closer and I have watched them stay locked on the decoy and come in straight downwind. I think a coyote that hears a distress call and then sees something he thinks is hurt, kinda forgets the wind and comes in, this is also stated in the research the charles shawley wrote. It states that if a coyote thinks something is up he for sure will use his nose and try to get downwind, but if you can fool him a little he might just come straight in.

 

I see the advantage Ed. I just have an issue with getting it deployed with minimal risk of getting busted. They need to make something you can just toss out from your concealed position..... wait.... patent pending. LOL

 

I guesss you could duct tape the sit-n-spin to a spear and then throw it where you want. LOL

 

Perfect! I was thinking about a remote control pickup truck. Paint it camo. Put the decoy in the back. And drive the little buggy right out there. LOL

Dont just drive it out there, put a bunny suit on the truck with a remote speaker in the bed and run it around in circles !! LOL

 

I tried the bunny suit thing- didn't work! Oh, you said on the truck, Nevermind!

 

Ed I think we just became millionaires. What shall we call it?

 

As we think of a name there will be hundreds filing for patents LOL

 

LMAO.... probably

 

It would be cool to see a coyote chasing a remote bunny running in circles LMAO !!

 

LOL I am looking at RC cars now.

 

There are people who do that with the RC cars. I've seen a few videos. I just got a fox jack 2 for my spitfire. Hopefully I'll get to try that out soon. Before this I've been using the MOJO critter. I've been happy with it except that it means I need to carry more batteries and I don't care much for using it in grass where it gets all wound up if I don't clear a spot for it.

Plus, now I'll be able to set both my caller and decoy up on one small tripod
