Hey guys, just wondering what kinds of floating goose decoys everyone uses? I've seen GHG floaters and while they look real good them seem to chip and scratch. Has anyone else had this problem? And how do the Bigfoot floaters look, i've only seen them in cabelas catalog but they didnt look to bad. thanks , lucas

i have some of the older bigfoot floaters. the new ones i bought last year are way better. , flocked heads and a better paint scheme. as far as holding up, not to bad. considering im not nice to them at all

i use bigfoot . going to buy about two to three dozen more for next year in floters and about four to five dozen in full bodys plus there new field duck decoys and floaters. seen them at the factory and art showed me the prototypes of the ducks in his workshop. i'm going to throw all my old cheap decoys away and buy only bigfoot decoys.

BIG FEET FLOATERS all the way. my opinion is that they are the best floaters that have ever been made. they look sweet and hold up like none other........

the best for holding up season after season of abuse and birds bein mashed over em are big foot...we have broke the heads off some of the ghg's by the big birds crashin down on them but i guess that would be normal with those big guys fallin on any decoy

I just bought a dozen ghg life size floaters and to me they are the best looking goose floater I've seen.The paint seems fine and the heads are on solid.I definatly agree the the foot floaters are tough,I have some of them too.I guess I'll see next year how the new ghg's hold up but I think they'll be fine.Nothing better then watching a big honker make a jumbo splat in the middle of the water spread!!!I never get tired of seeing it!!

both GHG and BigFeet GHG for the field look AWESOME!!! and then the bigfeet are one heck of a decoy for the water but i think GHG has my vote on best all around looking decoy. the new bigfoot feeder heads are hard as hell to put on with the flocking on them. it toke ups 1 1/2 hours to but on the heads to 2doz of them dang things

i would suggest going with bigfoot or the new life size ghg. i bought 3 1/2 doz ghg 2 or 3 years ago. today i use about 2 doz of them tops, some of the paint came of so much they look like albino geese. but the main reason that next year im getting the bigfoots is because the dam heads come of so freaking easy iv lost about five or six heads but they always fall off. GO BIGFOOT
