You can't go wrong with big foot, dakotas, or GHG. How much money you got? If you're in no financial trouble check out dave smith decoys :lol:

we hunt over all ghgs but if you have the money go with dakotas they are real tuff..the ghgs will break unless you have a good way to storing them to and from fields but all are good looking dekes and will kill over any of them

Fullbody goose: GHG FFD sleeper full bodies.
Floaters: GHG lifesize sleepers for 8, then a 4 pack of lifesize resters.

Mallard fullbodies: Rogers sporting goods has hardcores for $50 a 6 pack, the ghg full bodies are nice, and the GHG mallard shells at a $100 a dozen are nice. I don't find ducks to be picky, so choose your poison

Mallard floaters: GHG, or G&H, the ducks will probably land in your geese anyway.

That goose spread shows a lot of confidence and comfort, and will look great. Like I stated, I haven't found mallards to really care what duck decoys we run. For floaters, the GHG hot buys work just as good as any other decoy I have used an they are only 25 a dozen. In the field, the ducks come into the canada spread so well I don't find the need for duck decoys, but a robo is a noticeable helper here.

This is what the FFD sleeper fullbodies, with the GHG Lifesize sleeper/rester floaters look like.

GHG is the way to go. Only other decoys that compete are dakotas.

Cant go wrong with Bigfoots, no bags no fuss and you can punt them into the trailer if your angry. Check craigslist in your area, sometimes find someone sellin off. 3 doz by me just went for 450 on CList. Just missed em

We use a mix match with mainly BF's..... GHG lessers....Dakotas.....and Higdon stackable feeders. The lessers are used for a carry in hunt and our go to dekes are BF's basicly indestructable.

If you want durable i wold say bigfoot. but if you want a mixture of both i would go with dakota. a tought deek and easy to set out with the stay on base. thats why i dont like the new averys with the motion its like setting out 2 decoys stand then the deek. even though they look sweet.

I have been looking lately for ease of set up and speed. Bigfoots still are by far the easiest and fastest to set up and throw in the trailer.
