My Buckwings (LifeLite) are two years old, there the ones they have out now. They are also very shiny, shiner than the blowups I have seen. They have the expander stake. The material they are made out of (just plastic, I think)makes it so when you unfold them and open the stakes they make more noise than most decoys do, enough noise to spook a turkey. They are way too bulky. I hope the next set of decoys I get are not plastic like the Buckwings. I do like the expander stake. If you leave the Buckwings folded too long, when you open them they don't take there complete shape, the sides stay pushed in (not the whole side)...but the instructions tell you not to leave them folded for too long.
A friend of mine has a few Feather Flex decoys and they look pretty cheap. We were walking in the woods and we found one that was worn out, it looked ruff. The brown was coming off in some parts, not sure how long it was out there for.
I am stuck between two different kinds of decoys, Delta and Carry-Lite.
