Hi heather,

Look for "scent bands" at you dog trainging supply store (Lion Country Supply has them also). They are an elastic band that goes over your dummys and is real easy to put wings on and off them. I use them and recommend them, you can also get them with streamers attached.

Works for me, some old one have been on there for ever last longet than the feathers thats for sure.

Yeah duct tape will get the job done. I really try not to waste money on unneeded stuff, you can really get wrapped up in wasting money on dog stuff. I actually trained my puppy to trail things by using a small 2x4 and stapled wings to it.

Thanks guys. I've never heard of scent bands matt. I'll look for them. Although duct tape does sound good and cheap. :getdown:

Heater,

The Scent Bands are only $3.95 for a 3 pack and well worth the investment!

I think it was suppose to say something like some old ones I have, the tape outlast the feathers of course. Heck I dont know :laughing:

oh boy...this just BEGS for someone to post a picture of some goofball idiot wearing a set of wings. :toofunny:

for me..i usually just steal some thread from the wife's sewing kit and wrap 'em with that.

ill have to try the duct tape. i tried cable ties didnt work very long.

I think the best is just freezing a couple dead birds after each season. Nothing beats the real thing.

I'd go for the real thing as well. Can't beat real. If you want to put the wings on the dummy though you might try some heavy duty rubber bands. Just another way to put them on there, even though you have plenty that will work fine.

I agree :thumbsup:

 

[heeler]

I just used three pieces of decoy string,but you have to tie it tight.Duct tape would probably be much easier & stay on longer.

 

[Heather]

We used duct tape. It seemed to work. That wing is stuck on there good even after being thrown in water.

:yes: yup and for the real small dummies i use the hair band my wife has, no i dont give them back.
(might explain that smell she may have found them and thought.........oh my) anyway. i use the elastic hair bands , soak them in duck sent. and when mostly dried put them around the dummi and then drag it..........
