Dave Smith Decoys

The one on the left is the first one with the beak problem and off head color, the right one is the blue back

I've decided I'm just not ordering from them again, I'm not fooling with customer service anymore. I will have my buddy that has his own body shop airbrush over the blue on the back, and be done with it

I typically don't use decoys but it's her first year so I figured I'd get what are supposedly the best available to have all the help I can get to take attention from her

I personally would not let them off that easy. When you spend your hard earned money on something you expect it to be right. I bought a hen Jake pair approximately 8 years ago and they look like easterns. After spending that money I usually don't use them as much now and if I do it's the hen. I have had turkeys not come in because I think the Jake intimidates them because they are huge.

If the DSDs aren't working out for you, take a look at Deception Decoy Co. out of Kansas.  Some fine looking dekes in their own right.

The 2nd one looks fine to me...

The paint scheme is the look they are going for with 3/4 Strut Jake white face...

Send them both back and move on to a different brand if you don't like them...

I bet both will eventually be beat to sheit eventually!

Sell one? Interested.

I guess I've just never seen a turkey decoy with bright blue on the back. And the second one will get use for sure, right after I fix that blue lol

Thats awesome, getting the young one involed! Nothing like watching them pull the trigger.

I`d lay you odds that that decoy will bring in a turkey regardless of the blue on its back ! Good luck!
