Havent yet seen them to compare- but here are a couple thoughts anyway- for a dozen mallards for the price they have to be standard size and not oversize. observation -I see nothing that pops the senses-
Id say they will probably sell tons to the once in a while guys who dont want to majorly invest in coys.It would be an interestinng comparison to the GHG hot buy mallards

did some searchin on other forums and from what i gathered people seem to like them, and compare them alot to the hot buys, similar price ect, i would like to see one out of a box to get a feel of what there like, one thing that sounds promising is the keel is better for wrapping deke cord and wieghts onto and it has 4 points to tie off too!

heres some pics of the the come with 3 rester drakes 6 rester hens and 3 active type drakes   and hot buys on top and the storm fronts on the bottom  overall i am very pleased with these decoys, i cant compare them to the hot buys 2 from ghg as i only have the hotbuys 1 but i assume they are similar, i like the look of them they are very realistic and will add to my spread ! |

I too picked up a doz today for no other reason than they are decent dekes at a bargain of a price! The old version of the flambeau's looked like junk, but these are very similar to the GHG

I forgot to mention the most important part.....the storm fronts are wicked light! I'd say as light as the old carry lite aquakeels....I've got a couple spots where it's over a km to the blind, these are gonna come in handy! Not sure how tough they are, and the UVision is probably a crock, but these are definitely worth $30!
