About the decoys

To produce our decoys, the heads are made from a polyurethane plastic and the bodies are created using poplar wood for the base board and polyurethane foam. The decoys are then hand painted. To complete every decoy we add oak keels and apply a kleer coat epoxy to the bottom.

The decoys arrive with the head and body separate, shrink wrapped for shipping purposes. We send a hot glue gun, glue, borax and an exacto knife with each order. Instructions are also included to help walk you through the completion process.

Plastic decoys can be very effective, but as birds become tougher to hunt late in the season they can tell the difference between a plastic decoy and real feathers. The UDS system allow you to add realism to your spread when nothing else seems to work.

Yes, our customers are very satisfied with their results when using Boland Ultimate Decoy System decoys. If managed properly, a skin should last on the decoy for multiple seasons. If a skin receives more wear and tear than you’d like to see, it can be removed and replaced as often as you would like.
