Title: New Decoy
Post by: gobblingghost on March 14, 2012, 02:26:46 AM
Has anyone seen these new decoys called 007. I think put out by Cherokee.

It's still on backorder at Cabelas.  I just spoke with a rep at Cherokee Sports who told me that they will be supplying Cabela's with their first allotment of the decoys on March 26th.  And they will be the only retailer to initially have a supply of them.  Gander Mountain will also carry them.

Has anyone actually seen or held this decoy?  It looks really good in the picture but that can be pretty misleading.

Don't believe anyone has seen one in person yet cause it hadn't made to the US.  It must be traveling by a slow boat from china.  :TooFunny:
That's probably true but daggum shame

Six reviews on Cabelas are mixed.  Mostly not so good.
Color may be off, not as pictured on website or the box, not very mobile, but the heads apparently look good.

I ordered 3 for some guys at work.  2 came with pink stakes, 1 with black.  They don't have "legs" like they do in the ad from Cabelas and they have gold and robin egg blue all over them.  One of the guys said they look pretty good if he was going to hunt a blue flamingo!  I painted them up pretty nice for the guys but no way would I order one for myself.  They are nothing like what is pictured in the ad.  The hen head looks pretty good and goes with the body fairly well, especially after being painted but the gobbler heads look like they belong on a giraffe.  JMO, but they are not for me.
