    First, I'll go back and talk about the basic flocking colors for the gadwall. A gadwall doesn't have a lot of base color changes, the drake is mostly a medium grey paint and a medium grey flocking. With flocking unlimited, there are like 4 grey flocking colors, I've used them all at this...

    my best guess is I flock about 500 decoys a year. As far as gadwalls go, oil based paint pens are your friend for painting the chest and vermiculation.

Whatever flocking I have the most of which is brown and whatever paint I have the most of, which is brown. In other words, it really doesn't matter, the first coat is mainly the...

    If I remember correctly I think the calf was going to be a predator calling decoy. My dad shot some snow geese one time probably in the 40's by walking beside a horse drawn hay wagon into a field of snow geese. I never asked, but always wondered how the ride was in the wagon after the shots...
