Lifelike Feeding Drake

Guillermo Gastelo - November 03, 2010

By Guillermo Gastelo

Realism in a decoy counts, especially when the birds are weary. New for 2005 is the full-body mallard decoy from Hard Core Decoys. The lifelike decoy comes in six unique positions -- Upright Drake, Resting Drake, Calling Hen, Sleeping Drake, Drake Feeder and Hen Feeder. Polyethylene makes these decoys rugged and durable, able to withstand abuse and extreme temps. A new paint bonds better to the polyethylene material, preventing fading and chipping. One of each position comes in a package.
