i have never gone to the extent of placing a real dummy in the stand. but in wisconsin we are required to wear blaze orange. a few weeks before season starts we like to hang a blaze orange jacket in out stands.
1. it gets used to them seeing something in the stand.
2. it moves in the wind.
3. its nice to have out there on the days when you miss judge how cold it is but now you have an extra layer to put on!
