In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Looks really good.  Overkill for scooters.  They will decoy into black jugs.  We painted a bunch of milk jugs, the paint flaked off.  So i thined the paint a little poured some inside and shook it good until the entire inside was coated and threw those out on a long line.  The birds would come in.
Are those store bought heads?
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

How long did it take to mold up.  I purchased one of the metal molds, but the wife doesn't like me cooking the molds in the house.  I took some block styrafoam and cut some bodies and burlaped them, but I didn't like how they turned out.
The ticket is to make some good long tail decoys as those seem to skirt the decoys unless you have decoys for them.
Cut em!

Nice looking scoter! Can you make me some harlies like that? :chuckle: It is true that the ol' painted milk jug works, but with effort like that, gunning sea ducks will be more rewarding!
