Decoy Types
Once you know what species of goose you’re going to be hunting the next step is to decide what type of goose decoys you want to add to your spread. The majority of goose hunters mix and match goose decoy types and brands.
There are seven main types of goose decoys on the market today. The following is a summary of them:
Silo
A silhouette (silo, for short) decoy is a two dimensional decoy. When viewed from directly above, they disappear. An advantage of having a silhouette decoy is when viewed from above is that it appears that the decoy is moving.
Full Body
A fully body decoy is a decoy that has its entire body, including legs and feet. They come in normal size and over sized varieties.
