Looking for a ringneck/ringbill pattern

[JimG]

Anybody have one to share? Post here or email to duxndawgs@yahoo.com Thanks.

Planning on a move to Florida and I apparently need ringbills there and not knowing when I'll have shop space again, need to cut out a bunch before the move.

Put an 11X14 envelope inside on outer when you send. figure on at least a buck's more in stamps on the inner envelope.
If you want color info on both, drop me an e mail
gwdecoys@Verizon.net
Will send you a printable copy of what I have.
It's always a good idea to have specimens available to use as references.

Thank you Mark. Please provide the top view. Looks like print at 200% is about right if anyone else is wondering.

Jim, body is the same as my bluebill. Here's the top view of body and top view of ringbill head. Body is 11 5/8" long. Hope it works for you! It makes a nice gunner. MarkView attachment 20190923_143941.jpg

Good morning, Jim~


I've never carved an actual Ringneck - but have painted a few Broadbill up as gunners. If you use Behr sample jars, here are my charts.


These are Herter's Model 72 Bluebills - but Mark's pattern is the real deal !

Heres my take on the ringer...with a couple of head variations. I Just draw the top view of the head indivdually on the wood and the side of the body i do the same, makes every decoy a bit different.
