Kick aside the old decoys, and get ready to put the LCD Strutter in your turkey hunting gear. If your heart starts racing just thinking about in your face action of gobblers challenging your decoys, you’ll love the Avian-X® strutter. Incredible detail and superior lifelike realism is sure to bring in that dominant gobbler. The Avian-X® strutter is 15% smaller than a real turkey, so it’s light and easy to pack in the field for any turkey hunting scenario. Comes with a carry bag and collapsible stake.

The nation’s longbeards have one more thing to fear this spring – the Lifelike Collapsible Decoy (LCD) Jake Quarter Strut from Avian-X®. Featuring a true-to-life body posture, incredible feather detailing, and a revolutionary no-flake paint scheme, the Jake Quarter Strut is hard to tell apart from the real thing. The jake’s non-aggressive pose makes the decoy attractive to both dominant and subdominant gobblers, while its size – 15% percent smaller than a real jake – keeps it non-threatening and portable. Crafted from rugged Dura-Rubber, the LCD folds tightly and fits easily into a turkey vest, yet won’t crease or dent like earlier folding decoys. Realistic motion comes from a unique one piece folding stake system that allows for ample movement, but prevents the unnatural spin common with lighter decoys. The 24˝ stake assures the LCD sits higher, increasing the decoy’s visibility even in taller grass. The Jake Quarter Strut comes with a carry bag and collapsible stake.

Avian-X速 has spent countless hours designing and developing the ultimate turkey decoy, one to replace its own industry leading LCD Hen. The new designs incorporate the highest quality feather detail ever created in the decoy world and has refined the true-to-life paint scheme to match the natural reflective feathers of a real hen. All of these features are packed into a decoy 15% smaller than the original LCD, making the decoy smaller, lighter, and easier to pack and less dominant and aggressive to real hens. Three unique decoy postures give the hunter flexibility to choose the correct posture for any situation; this was developed through years of studying body postures, moods, and behaviors of wild turkeys. Combine all of this and that is what you get when you put an Avian-X速 decoy in your turkey gear.

Avian-X速 Turkey decoys are designed for the ultimate in turkey attraction, while still being hunter friendly. The design in every pose is not just your average look-a-like. From the detailed feather lines and feather positions, to the correct, relaxed wing position with each body pose and head position, Avian-X速 are designed to be completely collapsible with an advanced dura-rubber material, and come with a drawstring carrying bag. The body, head and wing positions of the Laydown Hen simulate the true breeding position of a hen turkey. She is squatting for the mating ritual and displaying to incoming gobblers that she is 100% receptive. Along with the breeding ritual, this pose can double for those great mid-morning set-ups and simulating a dusting hen. The Laydown Hen is just another way to simulate the most realistic poses and tell the whole story in your turkey decoys.

Stand-still decoys are a thing of the past, thanks to the Avian-X® Lifeline 360°. The 360° uses a small disk-andpulley system to impart realistic hunter-controlled motion to almost any decoy, tom or hen. Once secured to the upright stake, and with the hunter positioned 15 yards away, the decoy can be swiveled in a 360° arc. Extremely lightweight and totally portable, the Lifeline 360° sets up in seconds and is great for fooling wary or decoy-shy longbeards. The Lifeline 360° includes a copy of Zink’s latest turkey hunting DVD, “Turkey Time”.
