Need help picking a decoy

Getting back into the turkey hunting game this spring after a 15 year hiatus. One thing I want to pick up is a hen decoy. I got on-line to shop and WOW, prices where more than I expected. And there are also so many... maybe too many... options to choose from. Now, I don't mind spending the money on decent gear, but with so many choices I thought I would turn to this forum to help me narrow the field.

I can tell you that I'm living in Idaho, so I'll be humping the hills quite a bit. So a lightweight, compact decoy would work best. I used to have a foam decoy that sat on a post that would allow it to 'spin' in the wind. I could fold it into a cargo pocket on the leg, and that worked pretty well.

So any recommendations, considering my terrain, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for taking the time.

Mike
