You guys like the Montana decoys? Which pose do you guys go with if your back packing in 3-5 miles and not going to be using a treestand?

I've carried the Montana decoy, and used it. I have the side view one. I tied a cord to it, and hang it off a tree branch, instead of lugging the heavy stakes it comes with. I seldom carry it anymore, unless I am planning on just setting up on water. I have shot one bull while using it, and blown it on a couple. My partner carries the Heads up on occasion, and will flash it when he is the one calling. I've not seen an elk's reaction to his decoy, as of yet. I'm intrigued by the poison arrow decoy. Just a few of my thoughts.
