Default Decoy suggetions?

First timer this year. Big bowhunter, and I 'm looking at my tags right now. Next step is picking out a good portable blind and some decoys. I read back on some previous posts and have seen recomendations for both Delta and Buckwings. Can anyone give me an educated opinion on which are better or what the highs and lows are on these? Or is there some out there that are just not spoken of because it is already assumed that they are the best and need not be discussed? Also, can the buckwings be folded for transport?

As far as blinds, I'm pretty well sold on the T2 but am always interested in any new inputs. Does anyone have experience or seen the new Bs5 from DB? All comments are appreciated.

PS, Basspro advertises a setup that you can put your decoy on and it will "walk", thoughts on this?

Brokenbucket,

Thanks for the input. I think I'm going to try without a blind, but I've seen the results firsthand and I don't know that I am advanced enough to pull it off yet and here in Wisconsin I only have a 5 day season(2 days for me, work) so I intend to stack the deck in my favor as much as possible. Also I don't think in WI I have to ever worry about being to warm<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> in April, May!

Jolly Roger,
Yes...Buckwing decoys can fold up to carry. Also look at Carrylite decoys which can fold up. In my opinion these two companies have the best looking and working decoys out there.

I've used CARRYLITE decoys for the last 5 yrs. or so, and they still look good, as far as coloring and shape. I've got the holes in My jake deek to prove how lifelike they are!
