DSD's

When I first was introduced to turkey hunting....by my friend Joe...I'll never forget...the FIRST thing he told me is to beware of the turkey bug....you will spend and spend and spend and then spend some more on turkey hunting products...calls, decoys...camo...etc etc etc    The latest and the greatest...it is what you will want to have...

Before you know it...you will have a room full of "stuff"....he told me try not to let that happen...your better off getting top end stuff first..instead of starting with the cheaper stuff...over and over until you finally realize that the high end stuff is better and you end up getting it down the road anyway...he showed me his basement and I about fell over...

I took his words to heart because he was trying to show me what NOT to do... :lol:

I've been using an old Flambau flocked hen decoy and I think a Primos jake for years now...I've been looking and reading and looking again at the DSD's...and I can honestly say that I think I  purchased my last set of turkey decoys...

I went all out and just ordered the "Flock" from DSD...they should be here in a couple weeks...man am I psyched!!!

I'm not a real fan of the strutter decoys...another friend has a strutter and I've hunted over them and they just seem to spook birds when we were out...not sure if the timing was off or what but they just seemed to work against us...maybe ....down the road I'll get the DSD strutter....I don't know...I't will take some convincing I do believe....

Thanks Joe for the lesson   :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:

I just got a DSD at the end of last season (thanks to a brother in law that couldn't find anything else for my birthday)! I am looking forward to using it this year. The DSD strutter looks absolutely awesome but I am like you, I haven't had much luck with a strutter.

Cool ghillie, hope they get covered in blood the first time out.

If it eats I can catch it, if it bleeds I can kill it.

I have had the upright hen for three seasons now. I have had Boss Hens nock it off the stake. There has been at least, 15 Gobblers and 1 bearded hen kill in front of mine.. You will love them.. Kevin

In the right situation strutters do work well. They will attract a gobbler and will spook some but you can work that to your advantage by proper placement of the decoy. I have posted this video before, I took a few years ago, this is one bad Osceola.

my new A.C.E. DSD took a #6 flier last year & it didn't damage the decoy.  however, the earlier model is a little fragile.
