There is a whole post on this subject. I use the B-Mobile myself. I like how portable it is and I don't have a problem setting it up in the dark. About the only thing that people say they like better about the Pretty boy is that it is easier to set up in the dark.

I have the pretty boy and have used it a quite a bit but am thinking of getting a b-mobile.I think the prettyboy looks better and I would stilluse it when I'm setting up for a long sit.But for running and gunning the pretty boy is out of the question. Ab-mobile would probably work.

I've shot birds over both. I like B-Mobile because:

He is smaller, and I think that makes the gobblers more apt to try him out.

I like the way the fan, and fan holder can fold up for carry. No easy way to carry a dryed turkey fan, or that plastic thing pretty boy comes with.

He is mobile.

I just got my Flambeau King Strut in and it is very very very light foam, and highly realistic..you can put a real tail, real beard, and real wings on it, but it also comes with artificial versions...I put a tail on it I had at home and believ me, I love B-Mobile, but this decoy is the ultimate in realism...

the head looks very real..it was molded after a freeze dried gobbler's head...

I think it all weighs only 2.4 pounds...
