Sort of look like the old ones to me. The poses on the BWT and wigeons are pretty good though. I think these will be a wait and see type of deal. I remember the originals had promo photos like this and then the production dekes didn't look near the same. GHG's were the same way when they came out though. FA is getting closer and closer. Just give them a couple more years and they'll have it right!  EDIT - Pics of the wigeon and teal below....   |

an all hen pack of the BWT would be perfect, and the Widgeon are sweet too. I am with you ccordray - wait until they are in hand and I can scratch them.....

They do look mean!! ;D ;D I think the heads are too dark myself. They are good looking dekes though, I just am not sold on FA decoys.... at all!! The funny thing is that a "Big" name in the industry and someone affiliated with them, thinks that they are complete junk! We spent some time at the show and went over them and let's say it was not a good showing for FA!  This is why they have come down in price from the original, no one is buying them due to bad quality. I think if they really wanted to... they could make some good decoys! One day they may, but for now, not a good decoy in my opinion and from a big consensus in large. |

I've heard on other forums they dont hold up too well. I wanted to add some to the GHG spread for different looks but changed my mind after what I heard about them.

Say it ain't so, you killed ducks with plastic decoys with chipped paint??? Must have been all spoonies!!! You should see my spread of black jugs, best trick to stop the chipping paint on them is to paint the inside.
