Anyone used these? Thoughts and opinions on them? I've hunted over it a couple times and I have mixed emotions about it

Yes, but I have enough crap to mess with already which is why they do not get used.

I have a flapping pulsator and feel like it works as advertised, but it's heavy and a pain to lug around and deploy. PM if anyone wants to buy it. Only been used twice.

I just got a wonder duck cyclone and it works really well, plus it doesn't weigh much and runs at least 2 hunts on 2 D batteries.

Any creature in my vicinity that possesses an explosive penis is going to be killed.

I run 6 pulsators. Lot of our lakes are in draws that are sheltered from the wind. 2 pulsators to each 12-18 decs. Makes a HUGE difference on still ponds. When the wind is blowing, we leave em at home. Bulky and heavy. Most of these spots are 5-10 acres and birds won't get anywhere close to dead still decs and I can't pull a jerk string, help my kids, etc, etc. most are cattle ponds with zero grass so movent is no bueno either.
On slack days on our big lakes 50-90 acres birds will land in the middle without movement in decs. They draw right to the pulsators.

We run 3 and just added Splashing Flasher 2. Can be cumbersome, but very effective at making your spread come to life by moving water.

We used to run 6. As others have said, very effective for putting movement in your spread. 3 negatives and the reason we sold them:
1) HEAVY
2) Recharging batteries after every hunt
3) Limited to how deep you can hunt with them
We switched them out and went to feeding Wonder Ducks. Much lighter, longer battery life, and puts just as much ripple on the water. The only negative to them is they seem to not be as durable. Dogs jumping on them and guys throwing stuff on top of them in the boat have broken several.
Guess there's no one perfect motion decoy.

Mack's has quiver magnets for $10. Think I'll give them a try

Heavy, bulky, yet effective.
