I had a large hawk swoop down and attack a hen decoy last year. It didn’t go as planned and he hit the ground hard. It got up and Stood there dazed for a few minutes, then flew up onto a limb and eyeballed that hen decoy for 5 mins before flying off. It was an awesome sight and a lesson at how lethal a hawk is on turkeys. but the way it worked out for him was pretty damn funny when that hen body slammed him.

I’ve had buzzards swoop down at decoys and live hens out in an open field. They buzzards got about 5’ from the hens.
I’ve had coyotes and bobcats put the sneak on decoys several times.
83% of all statistics are made up.

I walked by a chufa field about 3 pm one afternoon the second week of the season and eased up to it to see if there was a turkey in it. Didn't see one and was about to go on when I saw some movement in the middle of the patch. I first thought a turkey was lying in the field, then I realized it was a coyote. He had crouched down in the 6" high grass to wait for a turkey to come along. He was too far for me to kill him, but that load of tss #9 definitely ruined his day.
The biologists tell us that coyotes seldom catch a turkey, but I have observed that they spend a lot of time trying. Maybe they are like we are and keep going even without success, but I suspect that they catch more than some think.
As General Stonewall Jackson said about the Yankees - "Kill them; kill them all."
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

I had a yote slam a decoy in Kansas. He hit it doing 60mph and left at the same speed. No time for a shot!!!
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

i've said it for years - HUNGER is a powerful & strong motivating force - be it for an animal or a human ... go 5 days without food & tell me i'm wrong ... that show, Alone, will prove my point - those guys go to extremes to eat only Jesus can go 40 days in the desert & defeat Satan ... 40 hours is a long enough time w/out anything to eat

Had 2 come into 70 yards eyeing the piss out of my decoys a few weekends ago. My buddy and i were getting ready to blast on them, but they caught our wind and took off.
A BAD DAYS HUNTING OR FISHING IS BETTER THAN ANY DAY AT WORK

That coyote would have never got that close to my decoy, I shot one last year that was heading toward mine. I wasn't letting him get that close.
