Remote Control Decoys

[Spencie]

Does anyone know (for sure) of the legality of remote control turkey decoys in Ohio. I know it's legal in NC and WV. It's a very gray area in the laws in my opinion. I actually have one and have played with it preseason....it works and is a pile of fun.

It's hard to video and operate Robo-Turkey at the same time.

Man what will they think of next.

Can't think of a response to this.

They have a Tom on a remote control motor that makes it look like he’s breeding a hen, or dry humping the ground....
My buddy used it to kill some turkeys this year...

I haven't even heared about them, but the 2nd video is impressive! Seems like these moving decoys really work! I'll check out them on amazon to see, whether they are expensive or no. I plan on taking my sons for my next turkey hunt, and believe it will be fun for them to see this thing in action...

Does it make calls? Now all they need is somewhere to put the fox pro inside it or some other electronic game call.

The Ohio regulations state that no electronic calls are allowed, but no mention of electronic decoys. Waterfowl hunting allows electronic decoys, so I see no reason why you couldn't use them for turkeys.

As long as the electronic decoy only moves and doesn't make any turkey calls/sounds, you're good to go!
