I didn't really make myself clear in the last post. I really dont think it makes THAT much of a difference. Either will certainly work, and I have used both. Currently I am using a 2yo Tom's fan because it isn't as beat up as the jake or 3yo fan i have layin around. It is a perfect fit.

The jake fan, IMO, just SEEMS like it would be less intimidating, and therefore scare away less birds. It might be the body size of the deke that turns some birds away as well, who knows. This is the rare occasion rather than the norm when toms shy away from this deke though.


Either way, a real fan will look 10000000000x better than the plastic photo fan they supply[:'(].
