That thing looks so complicated to put together. I bet it would be a nightmare at 3am in the marsh.

I'd buy a case of Heavymetal before I bought a 350 dollar decoy. Fuck that.

The Cabelas guys brought one of those and a dove just like it out to a charity dove hunt we were doing. (They brought the mallard just for showing off purposes). It was actually very easy to set up. The only thing I don't like is the price. Hopefully I can work something out with Cabelas and get one. If so I will let you know if they are worth the money. (Probably not though).

Give us a review if you get one! I bet it'll be the next big thing.
