Anybody check out the new Drake Waterfowl Decoys? I ordered a few of them, want to check them out. could be pretty cool for places where you walk in. There is a removable keel on them. I love the old Herters Suc Duc Decoys for that, I have some that are armour coated, and are amazing. The first time Drake came out with decoys they were similar to those, and I never picked any up. Hoping these are close.
Wondering if anybody else is interested in these decoys?

I checked em out at the game fair. First impression they seemed to be a decent decoy. If I walked in hunted i could see the weight being a nice advantage or even on those days with little wind. Back I'm college I cut some keels off deeks and left the front line hole to get better movement and save on weight because all the hunting i did was walk in.
Curious to see how they hold up. But I don't think I will be buying any unless they get outstanding reviews.

I must of gotten them delivered on saturday and I didn't see them. They look pretty good I gotta say. I was hoping the that underside was more concave. I really like the style of the suc duc decoys and was hoping these were going to be close to that, but there not. I am a bit nervous with the style of them that if there is any wind with nothing to hold the decoy to the water that they might tip over. I have had that problem with the GHG wood duck decoys on the alert drakes, the wind will tip them over. I know the original drake decoys they came out with were like those suc duc decoys, and I was hoping these were. But they look really good and they are super light, so I think they should be good.
