Can some one tell me why I should not buy a dove mojo for duck hunting. Price is about a third of a duck mojo. Do you really think a duck can tell the difference? Again just bored...

NOPE, can't tell ya why you should not, they work great for teal and if your a Marsh huntin "Big Duck" hunter, then it will work there too if you have a spread with biggunz and littl unz in it! Just my .02

I have used a Mojo Dove in the coastal marshes near POC, it works just as well as a
big Mojo but I think it looks more like a shorebird in the marsh then a duck. Like someone said above, I believe the key is the movement and if you use a Mojo it can help you get the birds' attention but getting the birds to commit depends more on proper decoy placement within your spread and the ability to communicate with the ducks.

do they make an intermittent switch for mojo's? seems like mojos would be a hell of alot more effective if they would spin for 10 or so seconds and then stop for about the same time. would look more life-like, as if birds were actually lighting into a spot... just a thought.........
but yeah i'm getting a mojo dove for duck season.

I don't think it would take a lot of tinkering to make an intermittent switch for a mojo, but one of the best things about them is that sometimes they draw birds across a field to me long before I see the birds. How would you know when to hit the button?

i would just let it run all the time. Spinning for 10 or so seconds and then it would stop for 5 or so. or if u could set it up to spin continuously until u have birds working and then switch it into intermittent mode by remote. alot like windshield wipers, u can set them for different timed intervals. just seems like the birds have got smart to seeing these contraptions running wide open all the time. maybe not dove but ducks for sure. i'm convinced dove are not very smart... we've had them try to land on the mojo, shoot and miss them, and have them fly off ten yards and try to land on it again.

The other day we had about 9 mourning dove fly in and land on a barbed wire fence within 5 feet of a mojo. They just sat there looking at it. I thought for sure they would fly off, but no. Well, not until I shot a few anyway. LOL
