I think the hen looks pretty good, not a bad price either.

The body looks very similar to the DSD standing hen, a gobbler or jake would have darker colors but I get the idea with the 4 in 1 at an affordable price

Not A bad deal and it always good to have options having multiple decoys in one makes for A light vest to run and gun!

Not easily portable if running and gunning  but very nice looking and versatile.

"The turkey-duplicating rubber body is molded from the cast of a world-champion carving."

Hmmm, I wonder who did the carving?

the 007 hen with Dekota's "the best jake decoy ever" and you've got a 100% chinese DSD knock offs for the LOW LOW price of a terrible american economy

Dang it! I knew it..... I didn't want anything to do with any company who was ripping off/producing from Dave's molds.

Dave works his tail end off to get his quality products out there.  I will continue to support DSD and their hard work.

Ok guys, here's the thing, here's what I have for dekes so far.....

DSD strutter
DSD feeder hen
DSD upright hen

I came across this decoy when looking at the DSD jake on cabelas and thought it would be a nice addition to my flock but if this has anything to do with ripping off a carving Dave Smith, I'm not sure I want it.

Please let me know.

Does anyone know if this decoy is compactible? I interpret a "rubber bodied decoy" as pliable material and different than a hard polyurethane decoy.

Anybody have any comments on the decoys I have so far?
