Maybe you gentle could help me with this one as well? Th defining characteristic is the skinny tail. This decoy was said to be in my step-fathers grandfathers hunting rig--- Winnebago chain, WI

Great deeks Pat!

Phil Babe Sleepers

I know these aren't BB's, but I just picked these up today. They were carved by Phil Babe and painted by Bob Gohl from Troy, MI

Here is my favorite Scaup decoy. Hollow cedar from Josh Ward on the forum. It was the first bird my wife bought me (she has bought me a decoy every year for my birthday since we were married). This bird has hunted the Gulf of Mexico, the Bering Sea, 2 of the Great Lakes and 4 states outside of Indiana since he was born in '08.

Here are some gunning corks. The hens were an adventure in spatter painting.

A friend gave me this one. Every time I went into his farmhouse to thank him for letting me hunt his property I would coment on this decoy. When they sold the farm he wanted me to have it. It was found in there barn in Smithville Ontario. Any ideas on who made it?
