Yes, it's sad but true, Herter's decoys are no more. As reported on a number of hunting sites, including http://www.yellowdogpatrol.com/2010/09/cabelas-discontinues-herters-decoys.html
In Herter's and KGT's honor, I spent some time yesterday repainting some Herter's 72s that were looking a little beat up. Better keep an eye on the Pennysaver and Craigslist for now on, 'cause they ain't making any more of these.
Cabela's is starting to garner a reputation as an evil empire. Hard to believe.

p.s. And in case anyone's wondering about the size of those neck bands . . . take a look at the videos on takeem.com .

Nice work on those 72’s Jim. I have a dozen that are in dire need of paint, any chance I could commission you? Think I see a few Bean, coastal corks in my future. In the circle I run in Cabela’s is undoubtedly morphing into an evil empire.
thanks. The hen decoy is my daughter's work, only had the base coat here, she finished it last night--I'll try to post a picture. the drakes got two coats of matte sealer last night.
