We use a mix of Shells( standard, mag, Super Mag), Full Bodies (Bigfoot, Judge, GHG flocked), Silouhettes, and a flag, sometimes we use some mallards in our spread.

About 4 dozen Hard Cores, I think 2 dozen Averys with flocked heads, 1 robo duck which we hurry up and take down if honkers are coming, but leave up for the ducks, and a few flags. Them honkers just don't decoy worth a crap if you have a robo duck up.

All depends on where ,when and what the feild or river looks like
I have 4 doz shells
5doz sil.
2 doz full body
30 floaters

Last year I put out all the decoys except for 12 floaters .
Took 2 hours to haul them out and set them up
Then 1 flock and the 6 of us had our 12 birds .
And those were decoy shy geese.

we just use 3 dozen silhouettes for now, but we're either gettin 3 dozen more silhouettes or 2 dozen greenhead gear shells for this year. i really like the silhouettes because we hunt alot of different fields and it allows us to pack in lots of decoys at a time.

Wow that is a lot. Right now I just bought 4 floaters and this it. I might pick up a few more this weekend but I will not even be at a doz. Do I need this many? I am hunting in tall grass in wetlands that has about a 25 foot wide creek running through it. Past floaters I can not think of what else to use.
