Do any of you guys believe one or the other makes your decoys more appealing, or look better? I have decoys with both but I honestly don't know if it matters to the ducks. What do you guys think?

I haven't ran uv deeks but have read a few amateur studies some college kids tried out and they saw no difference in birds working uv deeks vs just painted.
I have ran some of my own test with FFD duck floaters vs standards and I saw no difference what so ever.
Honkers and field hunting I don't think it matters, I know ppl who swear you have to run ffds to kill birds while the guy two fields over pounds them with BFs. IMO if ffd honkers were the deal sealer ppl like dave smith would have full ffds. IMO heads are enough and if ya do the tails they sure to pop and look nice, but I do not think and have not seen where ffds will get you more birds.
Ppl always use the argument of glare and frost, blah blah and most of those ppl who preach that have ffds, and well they in a way I find are just justifying there purchase to themselves because the saw a few too many zink videos.
Now if I was rich, why not buy ffds, they do look nice, but in terms of killing more geese or birds decoying, I have not see a difference.
The DOAs that I just purchased are also not ffd, just heads and tails, and I have a hunch that I will be able to kills birds over them. Like Ive said to many ppl, there are still guys that pound geese over black and whites....

yeah those were my thoughts too, but I wanted to see what you guys thought. I could maybe see flocking on the Goose heads, because I have seen some that weren't that they heads would shine.

killed em over bw's and non flocked for years. Hunt with what you can afford and whats better for the situation.
ffd i think is over kill imo. My ffd shells I had did last longer and didnt fade like some others used just as much as they were. I didnt shell out the money rogers had em on clearance.
