Its less then 2 lbs and takes me less then 30 min. to make one...Once I got the first one done that is...I pack two in for the strutter and the up right hen...Takes a few minets to un wind it,stake it down, stake the decoy down, hooked ready to go...Cooter if you want Ill send you one its soo...
I had to trim the wings so thay wouldnt hang up on the rope in motion...thay are shorter looking than nomal but it doesnt seem to matter to the birds...If you make one you will just have to mess with it some so it works smoothly in the field for you...A buddy of mine yoused his on the DSD jake...
motion syestem
I used a 1" x 4"board, 24" long riped it down to 2 1/2" in. wide...Drill a hole in the center for the stake... use small threaded eye bolts on each side front and back for your rope...Use small bunge at the back 4" from board to end of loop long and tie a knot on the underside...

You can see the clear one to the left and black one on the right of the stud that holds the wing on...I drilled two small holes at each end about 1/4" apart...I kept them on the same wing to make it more ridged...I used small ties but wished id used next size longer...I had my wife help...
I use a jake fan, no beard, and zip tyied my wings on...Iv had jakes a yard from it, and 2 year olds pek at it...My buddy used a full fan and beard but has had the same results...We have killed 6 bow birds and 3 gun ( youth hunters ) over them this year...The birds in strutt are the same size...
