As turkey hunters head into the field for season openers across the country, Avian-X® reveals its top products for 2025, pairing a line of Heavy-Duty Realism decoys with a motion base that adds the natural appeal of movement to any setup.
The HDR (Heavy-Duty Realism) series of turkey decoys features a variety of birds in a wide range of poses, each meticulously hand-crafted to mirror the real thing down to the most minute details. Included in the HDR lineup are:
- TheHDR Hen featuresan upright body with two interchangeable head postures for twice the realism and customization. Based on the scenario encountered in the field, hunters can add an outstretched head to convey aggression or a resting head to signal submissiveness, easily swapping one for the other as necessary.
- The HDR Feeding Hen brings a submissive feeding posture to hunters’ setups, presenting an attractive invitation for turkeys of every kind, from a potential gobbler mate to other curious hens. The decoy’s relaxed feathers and lowered feeding posture signal she’s calm and perfectly content, an encouraging sight for wary birds.
- The HDR Jake, sized slightly smaller than a real turkey but just big enough to make a tempting target for passing gobblers. This decoy features a quarter-strut posture and subdominant feathers that convey he’s content but ready to fight should the opportunity arise. The jake also comes with two removable head designs: one with a curled, aggressive posture, and the other with a straight, submissive posture.
- TheHDR Strutter, a convincing tom with interchangeable heads featuring two distinct aggression levels and an adjustable tail fan. Capable of mimicking a mature gobbler or youthful jake with his flocked feathers, realistic legs and a stunning iridescent paint scheme, this decoy opens the door to a whole new arsenal of setups.
The HDR decoy lineup becomes even more deadly when paired with the X-Factor Motion System, a remote-operated stand that adds realistic movement to appeal to birds’ natural curiosity. Ideal for highly mobile, run-and-gun-style hunters, this unique motion base is as compact, lightweight and easy to carry as it is simple to deploy.
