I like them. They are much easier to pack in than hard body decoys and lighter. The only negative i can think of is they are not as realistic as a dsd for example but they will trick birds.

Love the fact that they are lightweight and collapsible. Movable head sure is nice.

If you are hunting over a "spread" from a blind - probably not as realistic (as said). BUT - if you want to carry a decoy in case the right situation evolves... its perfect!

Lightweight, carries flat, and looks good enough to do the job. I don't like sitting in a tent watching a decoy spread, but for the 10% of the time I'm in a "decoy friendly" situation, I'll use the Montana's.

I have the jake and the hen and they are great for run and gun hunting.  Easy to carry and quick to setup.  Like said earlier not as realistic as other decoys but good enough and make up for it with how easy they are to carry.

I used a hen and jake last year in Neb.  They worked and helped me kill a gobbler there.

Thanks for the replies, sounds like these are the decoys I'm looking for something that's light & compact when stow away in a vest.

I like the way that they collapse.  I agree that they don't look as realistic, but if he gets close enough for a kiss he should be flopping
