How to use the Spring Fling in the Field
Creating a feeding flock scene is one of the best ways to bring in your target Tom. Smaller hens while feeding in grass can look nearly concealed in real life. These decoys are built spot on to create the kind of life-life setting the keen eyes of a Tom are built to catch on to. Surround your flock with other decoys like Montana Decoy's Dinner Belle, Miss Purr-fect and Jake Purr-fect and you'll tag out without any issues.
Spring Fling Packing

Breaking DownThe pole is easily removed by slipping off the band (attached to bird) from the stake and pulling the pole apart to fold on top of itself. The pole is short and has only one pivot point for easy break-down. Once that is done quickly you can address folding the decoy. |
Figure-8Notice the position of the hunter's hands. Place each thumb on opposite ends of the bird and begin to twist inward making a figure-8. This will allow the bird to fold into a disc and the last step is folding the head over the rest of the bird. |
Final StepOnce the bird is folded down into a disc-like shape you then can take the band that is attached to the belly of the bird and wrap it around the entire decoy. Once that is done you can toss her in the pack and move on. The whole process takes a few seconds, once practiced. This set of photos you just looked at was taken in succession and the hunter got his decoy folded in less than 5 seconds. |
Product Description
It’s not complicated. Toms foolishly rush in to rendezvous with a seductive hen. This breeding hen turkey decoy has made it easier than ever to give gobblers what they are looking for in the spring woods. Using a photo taken of a hen just before she was bred sends an invitation no tom can turn down. It’s the beginning of any classic love story. Guy meets girl. Guy falls for girl…well, we’ll just let hunters holding the gun write the script. We bet it ends with feathers flying and rave reviews.

Yes, you're going to have a hard time attracting a tom with it if he comes in at an angle that doesn't show the 2D image, but you have to realize that you're making that tradeoff by buying a 2D decoy in the first place. This decoy is incredibly packable, light, realistic looking, and seemingly durable. It is designed for anyone that is more interested with weight/size savings for either packing into a location or convenience.
Additionally, if you're one of the many cheapskates that probably come across this decoy because of the price, this decoy will probably work a lot better than any of the ultra-cheap decoys that you can buy at any sports shop. The image is truly high quality and realistic, unlike the cheapos, but it comes in at the same price.
If you fall into either of the categories above, I would highly recommend the purchase of this decoy. I think you'll get many years of turkey blasting over it as long as you play to its advantages and are smart about its use.

The spring steel it took large for the fabric. It won’t fold down because the steel got all twisted inside the decoy.
