Probably going to be the same as everyone's differing opinion on decoys in general. I wouldn't use one. They look alright though IMO as far as the design etc.

Not a bad looking decoy for the money. If you don't have a strutting decoy you may want to look at a 1/4 strut Jake...lot easier to carry...It's up to you ...IMO....

If turkeys ran to and killed themselves I wouldn't personally use any of there product...by a DSD and be done with it!

Are you looking for a "Sneak" decoy? or a strutter? If a Strutter I have the answer DSD!! Nothing else looks as real or as effective.

My suggestion would be to NOT use it on Public Lands... Been using "decoys" for 27 years and haven't had one shot yet, Strutter has been in use since Feather Flex came out with "Tommy" and used "Bubba" Jake before that and they have survived, been using my DSD Strutter without a problem. I guess I do use some of the general rules of safety and I do not/will not use him on public land.

Be Safe, Hunt Hard & Have Fun!!

Strutter decoys are cumbersome to carry.  Check the weight and see if it's something you want to haul around. DSD strutter decoys probably weigh 8 lbs. If you have deep pockets and a four wheeler, go with DSD.

I am buying nothing that has silly, disrespectful names,i.e.: thunder chicken, dirt nap, dust roll, pecker wrecker, funky chicken, beak buster,turkey thug etc in the name. The people that use or market these products remind me to much of A Ga celebrity that loves to use catch phrases and cheat on his wife then put his girlfriend in front of the camera and she couldn't give two craps about hunting. Also the bass tournament guy that does all the yelling. Dang I'm getting old and honory but if one animal deserves respect, it is the eastern wild turkey!

Have a jig and use custom calls because of a weird palate. I do use woodhaven classic v also but didn't know that was silly but okay.

Not a bad looking decoy for the money at all. Not every one has the extra money to spend on the DSD decoys.
