rb5037 Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 Good stuff, you could fly it into the woods and decoy the pigeons back out to you :blink: (That was a joke :blink: ) Try and get a photo or two or even better, a video clip.

Fisherman Mike Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 I made a Mojo out of a shell deek and a battery operated car motor ( Nicked from My son) Shortly after the article was posted up. I made the wings from polystyrene corrugated board that sign writers use to apply vinyl lettering to. It revolved ok with a bit of tweeking. I used it 4 times without decoys and shot didley squat. It went in the skip. My Neighbour is an American serviceman from Montana and he shoots a great deal at home. He reckons that our flapping decoys and rotaries would be real killers in the states and he has 3 Mojos. he has promised to get me a couple in two months time when he returns and i have promised him a electronic flapper in return. To be honest he says they work but not that much better than normal dove decoys. FM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hill billy Posted February 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 If it works or not i don't no but if it oes then it is another motorised decoy for my collection, if it doesn't then i will make a pecking pigeon or a flapper out of it but fingers crossed any way.
