I would like toadd to my spread a self made decoy out of wood and/or cork. I have googled it a little, know you need to make a template, and would like to attempt my first one cork b/c I heard this may be easier for a begginer.

I ebayed a little for the block of cork, but figured i would ask you guys first before i buy anything. I have all the tools to hand carve, and sand and haev my mom paint.

I hunt water and feilds about equally, more so feilds in the late season. I would be open to making either but havent decided which is easier.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a begginer trying to carry on gramps carving skills?

I also have bass wood available.

thanks!
