Whichever is on sale.
Feeder.
Either a DSD upright hen or the leading hen
Alert. It can be used as a breeder too.
I like the DSD upright hen as well. It can serve as a breeder of needed.
One of the uprightish hens is easier for toms to see if there is much vegetation. If you think about it a head/neck of a turkey is the first thing in sight coming over a hill and toms are a lot lower to the ground than we are. Feeding hens demonstrate that "everything is ok" and there is no danger so I generally try to have both in my set up.
The DSD work great.
If they are set-up right with a natural presentation most any will work
DSD upright hen. Works especially well when the gobblers are henned up. Work on calling the hen in and the gobbler will follow. I learned this by chance and it has worked for me several times when a gobbler could care less about your calling.
The DSD Upright Hen is more visible for her to see.
DSD Upright Hen would be the first decoy I would recommend, from there it's a hard choice and depends on you as a hunter and how you hunt... I can tell you I do have several DSD's and have had great success with them.
