Decoys
that are custom made by American Decoy come in a variety of hard to find species
and several of our head molds, for both ducks and
geese, have been designed for use with the current Decoys Unlimited molds,
vintage D.U. molds, as well as molds once offered by Wilson-Allen and Lasco.
A variety of regional favorite species of ducks and geese are available for
the hunters that want to have a custom rig that represents the birds they
are actually after.
There
are two basic styles of finished decoys available. The first are smooth painted
decoys made in the traditional wood-carving style. The second are custom decoys
that have a burlap covering that adds a combination of texture and durability.
Both styles are hand painted using the finest exterior acrylic paints, and all
come with taxidermy grade glass eyes. Custom head positions with adjustable
or removable options are available. All of the decoys offered for sale on this
site were made from molds made from original decoy carvings or from molds dating
back to the 50’s and 60’s. Decoys are made from an extraordinary
material that is shot proof, rot proof, yet, retains the "feel" and
handling characteristics of carved wood or cork decoys. The detail is so nice
that many have found their way to the mantle, never to see the water. We even
have a number of cork decoy carvers that use our heads on their own decoy bodies.
Prices, availibility, and descriptions of our decoys can be found in the purchase section. Special orders are welcome.
