mojo question

[Alex Bowe]

i have been thinking of buying a mojo. i heard that they are effective and can help alot in fields. i was curious if the baby mojo and the regular really make any difference since they both add movement. also would a baby mojo duck work for doves? i dont hunt doves alot but i want to try and ive heard that motion attracts them.

the biggest thing for me is money. i am only 16 and i dont hunt ducks too much but i hunt fields a lot where they fly over and i would like to get into marshes more. so is it a worthwhile investment?

[Mary Lutz]

im not sure if it would work for doves. never tried it. weve got 3 mojo doves and lots of mojo ducks. but the duck in the field helps allllooottt. so if i were you id buy one.

thanks. is there any difference between the baby and regular

[Mary Lutz]

i dont think so. we have a baby, regular, and a super. and the hen. doesnt seem to make them come in any different.

buy a lucky duck, same thing jus a lil less expensive

[Korey Ahlenstorf]

They do work well in fields. I havent noticed much of a difference between baby mojo and regular but I do believe they are well worth the investment put into getting one. Hope this helps!

ok thanks ill look into it. any difference in battery life or durability

not really...the paint wears off a little faster but thats about it i think.

Last year I bought a super mojo... and used it on a hunt with some of my friends family. they were running a baby mojo and By the end of the morning we decided the super mojo was alot quieter and ran alot smoother (didnt shake as violently). I would def recommend the super mojo... btw we shot a 6 man limit of birds that morning in 45 minutes... on public land... without anyone calling... lol:D Its proof to me that they do work... just my 2 cents

[Alex Bowe]

thanks everybody. i looked at them on cabelas and i think id have to go with the baby. i figured out that if i buy the duck, the remote, and the pole itll come out to $140. but i might end up just trying to make the pole and save some green

[Jexx]

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure the baby Mojo comes with some corrugated painted cardboard wings, like the Mojo dove, while the regular Mojo comes with metal wings.

I have both a regular Mojo drake decoy and Mojo dove decoy, and the wings last much better and are much higher quality on the duck decoy.

You might take that into consideration if durability is an issue for you.

Just buy the normal mojo duck with a factory installed remote. The baby has plastic corrugated wings which arent that sturdy.

[Hen Talk]

you could always buy the mojo thang its a hand held mojo wing that could be put in a field to add motion or simply held it works great and is only around $20

[Alex Bowe]

ok thanks. if the regular includes a remote and is that much more durable then maybe ill go with that.

Hen Talk,
i have seen them and they look nice. but i never thought of buying one. ill look into it. thanks

Around here on the public ground you are best off to not have any mojo or spinning wing decoy every blind or group has a mojo out or something. It's not that they don't work its that so many people use them.

[Alex Bowe]

ilduckhunter,
that makes sense but the fields i hunt are private.

also if i stuck it in my goose spread for when ducks fly by would it scare geese even if it was off? i would only run it when ducks were around. it would be off when geese are flying but would it spook them since its on a pole??

I have 2 baby mojos and like them, I would rather spend 120 on 2 smaller mojos than 1 thats bigger. The wings are cheaper on the baby but I havent had a problem, besides one fell out of the little holder... It makes a little noise but still worth the money I think

[oscar]

I don't think I would buy another MOjo. All 4 I have had have ended up with issues the first year.

I bought the Lucky Duck and have never looked back

I would like to agree with you here. I have never had a problem with our wings, but we take care of our stuff, we dont just toss it in the trailer like some guys. By the time the duck hears any odd noise from the baby mojo, it will be too late. if you do break the wing on the baby, they are cheap to replace.

I've got a baby mojo that I have been hunting over for two years now and the only problem I've had with it has been the pin in the support pole. I'll be investing in a wing thang and a super mojo for this winter. For the money, the baby mojo is the way to go though.

[groundsman3]

if your gunna buy a mojo buy the original. and baby mojos will work on doves

[duckin82]

baby mojo all the way if your gonna use one, its just a lil smaller and a lot cheaper, i wouldnt try it for doves though. i can tell you one thing though, get a dove mojo if you plan on dove huntin this year alex, well worth the investment

[groundsman3]

baby mojo will work for doves did it all last year. the problem with baby mojos is you gotta baby them. the shaft of the wing is only as think as lead and we had a wing completley fly off this year

[duckin82]

huh, never heard of that but it doesnt shock me, i tell ya what though, i know for a fact baby mojos work on pigeons like crazy

[Dux r me]

mojo doves for doves and pigeons is killer...im thinking for teal to?

[Mary Lutz]

yes it works for teal too...it is a duck decoy isnt it?

[Snowgooseman__SD]

we have 5 mojos and the big mojos battery runs out much faster compared to the 2 babys, but i have had to buy new wings for the babys because there paint chips so easy. Also in high winds the babys wings will stop because of the wind. we also have expedites (the old ones that came with metal wings) they seem to hold up pretty well. Only promblem with those is that we had to buy bunch of new batteries because they got so worn. Mojos help extremly well in field and water especially field, i dont find that sound is factor to the ducks or geese. just my .02

[Alex Bowe]

wow thanks everybody! i think after reading these that im gonna have to go with the baby. and jamie we can test robbie's theory out about using them for doves. i have no doubts that it will work. i dont think doves see that good. i think they just see movement and fly by.

Thanks!!

[Jexx]

You really wanna slaughter the doves get yourself a Mojo Dove Tree and mount the mojo dove to the top of it.

Its fun to use, but almost feels like cheating since the thing sits 10 feet high and doves literally try to land in it lol. I have the tree with mojo dove plus 4 doves that clip on the limbs and I highly recommend it.

sounds like fun but im not going to go dove hunting a lot and if i can get by using the duck then im gonna do it cause i dont have enough money to afford all this stuff right now. i just got a car and i need money for insurance so every little bit helps. but thanks for the info!

More than most people can say! I am glad to see you have priorities in line!

[ReDLeG12]

lucky duck....

[Jack Cousin]

we have a few mojos and they work fine. the baby mojo is nice cause its cheaper and works just as well. i would prefer the original but if you cant afford it, get the baby mojo. also, mojo dove works well on teal too.

[Alex Bowe]

FrogMan,
thanks for that. im hoping that my parents will help me out a little.

also ill look into the lucky duck but i think that im gonna have to go with the baby mojo. unless the lucky duck is cheaper.

[Alex Bowe]

also are these things water proof??

[JonJRambo]

the baby mojo might be cheaper, but they malfunction easy and they arent very durable...if it were me i would get the super mojo...

[cnyducker]

The metal wings and bigger shaft on the regular mojo make it much easier to deal with than the baby but, if you're very careful with it, the baby will work just as well. As far as doves go, we can't hunt them here, but we do shoot bunches of pigeons over our regular mojo and the doves are drawn to it also.
