Guys,

Listed below are a few shots from weekends outing with Pro- Staff Relations Manager, Rob Jepson. We wanted to obtain photo's of "live wild" ducks in our Greenhead Gear Wood duck decoy's. As the photo's show, these decoy's are definitely no slouch in the industry.

To the people that think the woodrows need some work- I dont think so. Those suckers are just about identical.

Hey guys....Those photos are WICKED....But I think there could still be a lot of improvement... In my opinion, the detail just isn't there...Look at the white on the drakes throat...and the vertical white hatching on the maroon breast...Also...The hens are spotted...I've never shot a spotted woodie... I love your products and will continue to buy from you guys but this was one ball that may have been dropped. But hey, one less than perfect decoy is still way better than the competition. You'll have to forgive my tardiness...I haven't posted in a while... Is there still a revision of that decoy in the works?


Any info would be cool as we hunt Woodies primarily (more so than even Mallards) in this neck of the woods (hence Wood Ducks)...

Thanks for the pictures Jason. This should show that the decoys work. If the ducks will stay around the decoys, that shows me that we did something right. The ducks are the real judges, and if they approve, it works for me.

The photos are great and speak for themselves. All that matters is that the Wood Ducks like them. Actions speak louder than words!

Those are really great comparison photos!

Great work Jase...don't forget to get a Fast-Break Blind and add some KillerWeed to it. That will give you some more flexibility as to where on the pond you can set up...

Absolutely incredible pictures. I agree with Curt on that for the ducks to stay in the decoys like that is fantastic.

Thanks everybody. It's really something to see, when you're sitting there and you have real ducks hanging in our decoys. I was talking to a TM last night. I wish I had a video of that afternoon. That drake with his head turned and looking up, is looking at 3-4 more ducks (wood ducks) coming through the trees. Amazing. Scott, I sent you an e-mail last night. Rob, 10-4 on the blind. Again thanks for the assistance.
