Has anyone used or been around a 'Sillosocks Tornado Rotary Decoy Machine', what is your opinion about this type of decoy system does it work and does it last? Thanks!

I hunted over a similar device several years ago in Sask, Can. We used it on 3-4 different set ups. Twice we had great luck with it in a decoy spread for light geese.

One calm morning, we managed to pull down 3 birds shy of 6 limits of white geese while they were flying to a flock of 5-7,000 in a field .25mi north of us. (we lost count, and stopped shooting to be safe)

We had a whirly-gig decoy "tornado" thing out with a mix of 900 Sillosocks and full body dekes. Maybe it was the huge spread, maybe it was the whirly-gig.

JoeA, thanks for response, a hunt'en buddy and I are thinking about trying one, they are expensive, but seem to work from what I can gather. We're still debating on to try it or not, anyway thanks for info.
