After getting a Mack's PW heads-up from Rick Ligman on the GHG Pro Grade Flocked Head Mallard Harvester Pack deal, I ordered a dozen, as my G&H set needs some company. "Honest honey, these are all the decoys I need". To which she replied, "and how many do you have now"? Never enough I thought to myself.
I received them and had one with a pretty good dent in the back from getting squashed in shipping. Hmm, how to fix this, since incoming ducks will surely notice!
Before doing any major surgery, I simply placed it on top of my indoor wood boiler, which gets warm to the touch. Shazam, within 30 minutes it popped right back out to its original shape. I know this is a carvers site primarily, but also know some of us here lack the tools, time, or skills and just love duck hunting, so I thought I'd pass my experience on for what's it worth.
My G&H are hard plastic and have done very well after 25 years. We'll see how these soft plastic dekes hold up. I can always have RL fill them with foam, if needed.
Side note...They look very nice, and got them for $129, and free shipping. ($8 surcharge for size) Plus a 12 slot thinly made bag for
protecting them from rubbing against each other.
Again, my thanks to RL for helping spend my $$.
