G&H literally last a lifetime. They may not be as pretty as some of the others, but they still work
Stay away from "Tanglefree" dekes. They use a light grey plastic under their paint, which will chip and expose white looking plastic underneath.

We can't be looking at the same G&H. The ones I'm looking at don't even look like grey ducks.

Those pro grades are pretty, but always done well with G&H. They aren't as pretty but look more natural to me

I'm fairly certain G&H uses the same duck body mold for most all of their big suck decoys. They just change the paint scheme obviously. I have also found G&H to hold up very well season after season, especially the paint.
While other companies such as Avery and others use much more realistic molds and paint schemes to match the actual bird, the paint does not hold up for shite after hard use. They do look so good out the box tho.

Forgive me, but in comparison G&H looks terrible. I must be missing something.

Couldn't be a worse comparison picture quality wise.

Fair enough. I've always heard those G&H dekes held up well, but never bought any just because of the price. This is my first season using the Pro Grades, and that was the most I'd ever spent on dekes. I'm pretty hard on my shite, so after the season I'll be able to give a better review as to how the paint holds up and stuff. I used Pro Grade GWT all last year and the paint held up well so hopefully the greys do the same.

I've got some G&H gadwall too. I don't use them much anymore, buy they've lasted forever. To be honest, I can't say the pro grade work any better, they're just new and shiny. Throw either out in a duck weed hole and you'll kill gray ducks

Carry Lite makes a good Gadwall decoy and mine have lasted quite a few years...I believe Duck Commander bought them out...

GHG Prograde Gadwalls. Got a dozen that have been used pretty hard for a couple of seasons and they still look good.

Like I said above, they aren't as pretty, but I guarantee they work.
Some that have been hunted over for damn near every weekend of 25 seasons still look like that top pic.

For what they cost the G&H ones look like shite. The Pro Grade Gadwalls are the best grey dekes I've ever seen personally, and they're not that expensive. They sold out completely last year. Then hens are a little brown, but that's easily fixed.
Just found them online 6 for 59.99. That's not cheap at all

How much are pro grades? They look badass.

Don't buy these:
Flambeau Master Series Classic Gadwall Duck Decoys, 6-Pack
Terrible, looks like a tard painted them. I needed free shipping so tacked it on an order not looking too closely.
