I've seen woody & jezebel. They look pretty good. But no where as good as the Dave Smith Decoys. JMO

A facebook site was selling the pair for $50 a few months ago.  The stake holes are small, so you gotta fish around a little bit to get the top one lined up.  I might glue in an arrow shaft to make that a little easier.  They look pretty good, though...should work just fine.  Heck, my old cheapo Feather Flex's work just fine.  :)

well i went ahead and bought the soft bodied verson of woody and jezebel  the poly carbinate i think would be hard to carry and bulky i need to have something that will carry easy i have to walk to much to mess with decoy bags and such

I like em pretty good.  If they're wrinkled coming out of the box, a hair dryer or lying them in the warm sun (maybe not this time of year) will iron them out.

I have the Jezebel decoy that I use with a full strut pretty boy.  They are a little harder to carry, but it fits inside the pretty boy and then I put them in a bag and it carries all right.  They do look great and convince even the wariest of toms.

A buddy of mine had them and he loves them. I was thinking of buying me a pair after seeing them set up in his yard.

I bought some foam decoys at the end of last year.  They worked pretty well and I could fold/roll three or four of them up and put them in the pouch of my vest and didn't have to carry out the decoy bag.  Made life a bit easier.

I am also looking for new decoy ideas, but I still keep going back to the DSD's.
Might make the trip to a Scheels to see them in person.

They are definitely bulky to transport. I tuck them between my cushion and vest which makes them more manageable. I wouldn't thunk they're any worse than trying to lug around a DSD.  They do look good for their price.
