i was wondering if you guys have had good luck with the new duck shells in fields. right now we hunt with full body blackducks and mallards in our goose spreads. i was thinking about getting some blackduck and mallard shells to save space.thanks

i ordered 2 dozen of these back in the summer. after waiting way too long, i finally recieved a dozen feeders. imho they suck. the "stackability" was horrible. most heads wouldn't go on without modificatios to the hole. they are way overpriced for what they are. that being said i cancelled the other dozen i was waiting on and gave the feeders a field test. after 2 hunts i sold 'em. i will stick to fullbodies. they take up more room but look so much better in a real world situation. i will be adding more fullbodies to the arsenal and be running ghg's and harcores hand in hand.

Freshshooter,
We bought 2 doz right before we went out to ND in October. They seemed to work great for us in the field, didn't have any of the problems as randy m. They are a great space saver and in my opinion worked great for our hunting situations, We haven't tried the full bodies yet so I can't really give you an accurate comparison. I would say buy a doz or 2 to start with if you like them keep buying them if not go back to the full bodies. My best advise is the best opinion would be your own opinion after you tried them for yourself.

I have a dz that have worked out great for me so far. All of my heads went on fine. they are just a chopped off full body. I would give them a try for sure
