Heads Up On Decoy's New Weight & Modifications!

Postby ElkNut1 » 06 19, 2014 •  [Post 1]

Guys, James from Poison Arrow Gear has reduced the weight of his Decoy that attaches to your bow to 3.1 ounces & has made modifications to the fabric & how it attaches to ones bow! That's amazing! They will be available for shipping in aprox 2 weeks. If you haven't seen or heard about it it's a must see! I will be sporting one this year without a doubt!

I will also say I'm using Elk Mountains Gear Slip System this year as well, I believe the combo of the two can really up ones odds in the right situation! Thanks guys for your great products & your support! If any are considering a Decoy for this years hunts & you should be please check these guys out! http://www.elkmtngear.com/ --- http://www.poisonarrowgear.com/

I'm there.. Thanks for the heads up on the final production model of the PAG Decoy Paul. I already have an Elk Mountain Gear Slip System (with camo and cow posterior slip covers), and, was fortunate enough to obtain one of the Poison Arrow Gear prototypes to check out (thank you again James). I will have both of these hunting multipliers in my elk kit bag and deploy them this fall as the situation necessitates! Is it Elktember yet?

I'm using both Decoys this year. The one that attaches to the bow will be on it all the time. The Slip System is being taken into a natural mineral lick area & left there for use as a ground blind. Both have their place & should work very well

It's the elk rump compliments of Jeff from Elk Mtn Gear! It's pretty cool looking, ask RJ!

I'm not sure i'm seeing the "slip' that attaches to the bow. Will it attach to a recurve?

Buck, the Poison Arrow Gear decoy attaches to an arrow in your quiver and is deployed from there so yes, I would imagine it would work fine on your stickbow if you have a mounted quiver. The "slip" mentioned above is one of the various covers that slide on/off of the Elk Mountain Gear Slip System.

Are the Poison Arrow decoys on the market now? I thought he said he'd email when they are ready to ship.

I sent an e-mail to all of the guys on the wait list You are the second person who has not received the e-mail. I do not know why not, I have received no notice of returned mail.

I am in production at this time, but there will be a slight lull in shipping as we ramp up.

Go ahead and place your order and I will get it filled as soon as possible.

Yes it works on a recurve. It will work on any bow that has a quiver. You attach it to an arrow in your quiver.

If you have a compound and do not use a bow mounted quiver it can be attached to a rod that screws into the top quiver mounting hole in your bow.

I actually designed this on a recurve. I have shot a recurve for years (Great Plains) I have gone to a compound to up my success rate. Success sells a product.

If there are any questions feel free to contact me.
