Default New Flambeau Buck Decoy

Ive seen them advertised and to me they are the best looking deer decoy out other than full body mounted ones. I was wondering if anyone has already purchased one and what they thought. Ive heard they are noisy and hard to get the legs and head back into the cavity but thats all Ive heard. I would appreciate any input.

I think that I would be concerned that he might spook deer, but the grazing doe and bedded doe combined might be the ticket.

I posted a mini review not too long ago. I sent mine back, primarily because of a defect (one of the front legs wouldn't attach). Having said that, it is also heavy and it is difficult and noisy to get the limbs and head in and out of the body cavitiy. It is very realistic in appearance...if you had you own property and wouldn't have to pack it in a great distance, it would probably work well. Good luck....

Ive used the carrylite decoy before, in my opinion is was the best looking and qaulity decoy before the flambeau came out. That being said, the noise and weight really arent a factor for me. Really no 3-d decoy is going to be easy to carry and lightweight.

The decoy looks outstanding, I'd love to add an electronic MAD call to it and have it sittin' on my property for some ruttin' action, come November!

Hey shed33, just curious but does it come with stakes for the legs. I really couldnt find any info about that. Also did you like the twist lock legs, I heard one person say they are pretty flemsy.
