I cant help you with the molds, but have a question for you about G&H. What is it that you like about them? Is it strictly a durability thing? I've seriously considered switching to them, but cant get over how unrealistic they look compared to similarly priced competitors.

Walk another thing to add to the list is that there lighter then some of the other brands as well! In a airboat situation these are ideal! More decoys less weight

You need to change your spread up for me anyway, I can't shoot those passing birds on the outside of your spread. You can't put 10 dozen birds out with 3 feet between them and have ducks land or fly the outside of the spread and have your spread be in range

decoys floating away, mushroom tips and shot up decoys...this thread has it all

Swivel is best move you can make. 90% of my GHG deekes are trash and will hit the dumpster this year. They sure looked nice the year I got them. Have been slowly replacing everything with G&H as well. I caught the redheads swivel standard on the cheap 2 years ago.

Some of their decoys may not look like the latest greatest, most beautifully carved decoys from what ever Asain country, but they do fool birds.

I get accused of being hard on my gear. All I know is that Avery, will never see another dime from me. Their blind bags wont even last a year.

Many of my deeks sound like rattle trap fishing lures. Clowns, including myself have been known to run a pellet into them. On a cold day, which we really have not had this year, the chinese decoys will loose chunks. The G&H are like a timex.....take a licking and keep on ticking.

Very few on this or any other board agree with you and I about G and H. After X number of seasons, nobody will be able to convince me the Chinese donkey doo doo decoys can hold a candle to the G and H decoys. So far as the Avrery bags I picked up a bag by the handles once and the bag never moved. They crumbled to powder. I was so amazed at how easily they powered, I youtubed the video and put it on here.

I don't reckon that a good many here or elsewhere will agree with me on a good many things:

Avery is Junk. The Pro Grade is just better looking Junk. You can put lipstick on a pig, but its still a pig underneath. Durability? Hahaha.

Yeti coolers are overpriced fad. They do not hold ice any better than any other brand. They are more durable than most. My brute is the same way, but actually retains ice a tad better.

Hevimetal, black cloud and blind side are all gimmick loads. Anybody who has reloaded lead for any length of time will tell you that they paid extra for high antimony shot so the shot doesnt deform on setback. Round pellets retain energy and velocity better. I use steel handloads or federal blue box and do quite well.


Name one single mass produced Chinese product that outperforms it's made in the U.S.A. counterpart.
