new decoy

[snapper1982]

i already have a mounted bird. i wanted a lighter decoy that i dont have to worry about when it rains.

looks real good

Very impressed man! Did you kill a recent bird that you used the feathers from?

[snapper1982]

yes 2 of my birds this year i breasted out then took guts out and froze the rest because i had planned to do this. only one i would not have done this to is a DSD. still considering buying a Zink this summer and doin it up.

cut and glued each feather.

I bet that took at least 15 minutes...  Maybe even longer.

Great job on that decoy?  I would be curious as to how long it actually did take?

[snapper1982]

8-10 hours including the paint job on the head

I was fixing to shoot till I saw it didn't have a beard.

that was done on purpose to make anyone who thinks about shooting it think twice.

Of course I was joking and it was meant as a compliment. Good idea nonetheless.

I'm sure all your hard work will pay off down the road .Very nice indeed.

Looks very good but I know guys who use only a tail fan as a decoy an it works well....

That looks super. Your work and attention to detail really shows.  I would seriously kill any gobbler that tried to mess that up.

And I know guys who use 10 gauges when a 410 or a bow will kill one. It is all about personal preference and I have way more confidence in my decoy than just a tail. Was in New York this past week with this decoy and he tallied up 3 kills!
