Default canada goose shell decoys

In looking at the Mack's PW catalog, I see that there are now Pro Grade and hot buy Canada goose shell decoys. I can't find a description of the differences. Which type is comparable to last year's shell decoys.

Thanks!

The Pro-grade canada goose shells are the ones that were in production last year. There are also FFD canada goose shells this year along with the Hot-buys and Pro-grades. Hope this helps.

The difference between the pro grades and the hot buys are the hot buys are a little smaller and they have a little different paint scheme.

Also I believe the hot buys come with motion stakes. I haven't seen them in person but that is what I believe they are.

The Pro-Grade Shell are over-sized and the HotBuys are Life-size. Both come with Universal Motion Stakes.

The Pro-Grades also have a higher back for increased visibility.

thanks,

As a follow up, some of the local sporting goods stores have some shells from last year.

Those would be the same as this year's pro grades less the motion stakes? The paint, decoy size and heads would be the same?


thanks again!

There may be a slight variation in the paint scheme, but I wouldn't let that stop me from buying them.

Thanks,
