Turkey decoys
 
Looking for opinions on the best decoys.

I need something that packs into a small package but sets up easily and springs back into form. Reasonably priced.

thks

I' m using the Sceery inflatables and love them. Just for the reasons that you stated. When deflated they ball up about the size of a baseball. Since they blow up you don' t get that nice smashed been worn in a vest too long look. The stake is made of a hard plastic with a sharp point and it goes into the ground easy. Also the stake has a female notch in it and the reciver which slides under the turkey has a male notch, this keeps the deke from spinning in the wind, it can only move 90 degrees. Of course some one will say what if you shoot them... I always tell them that I shoot the real bird :D Even if you do, Mr. Sceery has put patches in all the deke boxes for a just in case.

if you go for inflatables, be careful as some can have a shine to the finish. it looks unatural imo. sceereys are more dull and you can get the first generation from cabelas cheap

I would have to second the Feather Flex decoys for ease of portability and setup.

Just my two scents, I don' t like inflatable decoys. They are very shiney, and they take much longer to set up because you have to inflate them. And if you locate a gobbler close and need to set up quick you may be in trouble. I would recomend the decoys that open with the stake (works like an umbrella). I think buckwing makes some of the better decoys.

Hidden valley inflatables are by far the best (my opinion....lol). You can get them in Cabelas. They have no shine and are VERY realistic.
