This will be our second year using the DSD products. In my opinion, the best looking decoy out there.

Do they fold up, or are they a lot to tote around? I cover a LOT of ground, and only put a decoy out 1/3 of the time....need something lite.

They don't fold up, but there not heavy. They come with a bag that has draw string to keep them in. Also a loop to put over the shoulder.

BTW - if I bring any extra decoys, I set those up away from the breeding pair; generally in heavier cover.
Thanks for the tips Sheridan,

I will keep these in mind as the season heats up.. I am afraid it may be a hard year to hunt up this way this year. Our weather is more like March right now. If it is a warm April it will surely be difficult when our season opens up in May.. Last year was a good hunting season but the year before had them already bred when the hunting season opened up..

This is the very reason I use inflatables only. Tried some of the others, even fold ups, but found the inflatables to be what worked for me the best. May not look quite as good as some of the others, but I could show you a few toms that didn't mind the way they looked.

Are they THE BEST looking decoys? No. Are they the best for me? I believe so.

Pricy but as far as realism nothing comes close to the 2 Zink's that I have.

I've been looking at those but they are a bit pricey. However, I have hunted with the DSD Jake/Hen combo, and they filled out my Osceola hunts in a hurry. I guess you pay for what you get. I think I'll give the Zinks a shot.
