"Cow Blind" Draws In Birds
Ducks, geese and turkeys are more likely to come over when you install this fake cow near a hunting blind out in the field, says Gooseview Industries, Grand Rapids, Minn. It can also be used as a blind on its own.
  Constructed of corrugated polyethylene, the "Confidence Cow" blind is the photographic image of a Black Angus. It measures 48 in. high by 78 in. long by 1 in. deep and weighs 5 lbs. There are two viewing windows at the top and a metal stand on the side that you push into the ground. The unit folds flat to 42 in. high by 26 in. long by 2 in. deep for storage.
  "It looks real and works great whether you hide behind it or simply place it close to your hunting blind," says inventor Curt Hill. FARM SHOW recently featured his round bale blind (Vol. 27, No. 6). "The reason it works is that wild birds, including ducks, geese and turkeys, aren't afraid of cows and will often feed on their manure. The fake cow signals to them that all is well. Most guys who buy it tell us they hide behind the cow. One customer bought six of our cow blinds to create a ęconfidence herd!'
  "Whitetail deer will avoid cows, allowing you the opportunity to reroute deer to run under your stand."
  Sells for $99.99 plus S&H.
