I have done some goose heads with it. seems pretty good. I have not used it in the feild yet. I'm getting ready to repaint/flock some green heads tho with their kit. I think the key is not just tossing the deks in a bag. i have a slotted bag for my green heads and a special bag for honk heads.  :twocents:

I flocked seven dosen goose heads and tails on my bigfoots. I just boutght a big bag of flocking off ebay for really cheep then i go to the craft store for the color of paint that i want. I get a acrylic flat paint and i pour a little windex in to thin it down a little and it make the flocking stick a little better. I used the ghg kit before and it didnt seem to work as well but i kept the flocking shaker and i think a key point is is to make shure the flocking come out of your shaker evenly and not in clumps and dont shake the extra flocking off before you hang it up to dry do it after then take a soft brush after it has completly dryed then put another layer on. Trust me it works great its a little hard to paint your peice with flocking on it but allready but it get a thicker layer and it dosent scratch off as easy and when you do get a scratch you dont have a shiny spot with that flat acrylic paint like you do with the adhsive that somes in the the ghg kit. I pretty rought on my decoys and mine seem to hold up for about four yeas before i reflock them all again. I dont have bags for them and toss them in or out of the truck or trailer and the flocking still holds up. Killed lots of geese over them. Hope this helps any more questing send me a PM.

If it is spam it's kind of dumb. Maybe they want honest opinions about their products? Still not a great tact to take though. :twocents:

Its a great gurilla marketing technique.  :chuckle: It does make it a little more see through when they only have singe digit post counts...... If i has a business like that i'd probably take it to the next leve and do a how to video, and what they looked like on the water... I think a sponsorship would be a CHEEP way to pimp your product.  :twocents:
