How many of you now use more updated types of decoys? I have a new one that sells for 250 dollars and bought for 150 from a dealer at the Missouri Deer show two weeks ago. It is a jake or one can buy a hen. The jake looks real and they imprinted onto the surface true colors of a jake with head same as one in mating season. THe material on them is like neoprene like divers wear but really thin. I will try it out this summer. I saw another salesman who is making turkey skins and turkey decoys out of turkeys. He is looking for someone to raise turkeys for them. It thinks eventually will need 10,000 a year. Now, it is not that much but he wants someone to raise them, he will pay for shipping after you kill them. He will tell you how to kill them so they look good and then freeze them and over night ship them. I am going to try an make deer skins.

that must be one heck of a decoy..... I have 8 feather flex decoys that I bought a couple years ago form someone on here and spent $45... they bring the turkey in just fine... This year I bought a feather flex strutting jake for another $45 to add to my little collection. I did see the "turkey skins" for sale at Gander Mountain while I was there the other day.... but I can't afford to buy them for all of my decoys... and they do not fit strutting decoys... so I passed..... but they did look pretty neat and very real.
