Decoys

We hand carve these decoys, apply linseed oil to preserve the wood, and then hand brush on oil paints for a realistic and accurate finish similar to our wooden hunting decoys.

To access the storage area, remove the screws, place the bag of ashes inside and reseal the bottom board. Our wood decoys are hollowed from a single...

The dimensions we use are a magnum sized 16" X 7" with weights of approximately 1.75 lbs each. Our signature hand applied oils over a linseed oil base coat result in a realistic feather finish that even wary Mr....
