I honestly have no clue. Atleast 4 dozen mallard decoys, 2 dozen wood duck decoys, 1 dozen greenwing teal decoys, one pintail, 7 dozen goose shells, 3 dozen goose rags, and over 300 crane decoys. So whatever that ends up bein.

i've got 50 assorted mallards and blacks. one pintail that i found.

but, i rarely use more than 7, somedays 13... but thats it. some of my best hunting is with one hen mallard, walking a slow creek....jump 'em, flop her out there, call 'em back.

she's MUCH easier to carry!
