groach1234 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 i have got a dozen flocked shell decoys and my hide, i have been out several time and have been getting 10-20 birds a go. I have been thinking about buying either a lofter or maybe a flapper. what would you recommend i do? George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy11 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Flapper or even better 2 Hazel sticks and use winged decoys of some kind as landers..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I would stick with ground decoys and buy a floater/bouncer, or make your own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groach1234 Posted March 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Thanks for the feedback, this may be a stupid question but, for the bouncer, can you use dead birds for it or should you use in flight decoys? if both which is better?

Cranfield Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Most bouncers can take a dead bird, or a "flying" decoy. I much prefer a dead bird, they look good, should be plentiful and are much cheaper than the alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groach1234 Posted March 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Thanks for the quick reply, how many would you recommend? would one suffice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 I mostly use two, but a lot of my friends just use one. Try one and see how you get on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groach1234 Posted April 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Used my bouncer for the first time to day and it worked a treat. Thanks, George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
