Title: DSD Strutter
Post by: Big Willie on May 04, 2014, 08:34:07 PM
There is a tube that runs the length of the decoy, that the stake goes up into    Mine broke in the middle cant use the decoy. Has any one else had this happen?

I don't use the decoy stake hole -- I drill a 1 inch hole behind it and use a full length aluminum rod -I do this on all my decoys - works better , the wind moves it and makes for a more natural movement

Big Willie - is that the DSD jake that you have? Are you pleased with it so far? I need to find a jake decoy for the fall and the only decoys I have ever had or even been around is the avian X.

I really like them - they are durable, quiet, and look really good. BUT I am always on the look out for better products.

I just read the thread title - DSD Strutter - I guess it is early.

Either way do you like/recommend it - are you able to compare it to avian X?

I have had the DSD jake and hens since they first hit the market,even before they changed to the ACE plastic.In my humble opinion,they are the best of the best.Fred makes a good decoy, but it all comes down to personal preference.

I have the strutter and love it but I wish I could get more movement on windy days!  I like the idea of drilling your own hole but wouldn't the rod poke a hole in the top?
