Top 4 New Turkey Decoys from NWTF 2025

Winter is waning, and spring is on the horizon. As such, people are thinking about all things spring, and for hunters, that includes sights and sounds from the turkey woods. Gobblers echoing through the hollows. Full-strut displays high on the hillsides. The up-close, bone-chilling sounds of a longbeard spitting and drumming at 15 steps. Yeah, these are the true spoils of spring, and they’re only a calendar page or two away.

During the pre-season, most hunters enjoy stocking up on the latest turkey gear. If that’s you, check out some of the top turkey decoys that were on display at the 2025 NWTF Convention.

Avian-X turkey decoys are known for their utmost realism. These hyper-realistic displays provide a lot of confidence in the turkey woods. With highly effective decoys, hunters are better equipped to dupe that old longbeard into range. Check out their full-strut HDR Strutter, semi-aggressive HDR Jake, and the HDR Feeding and HDR Hen decoys.

Another company that produces very realistic decoys, DSD has a large lineup of decoy options, too. Available gobbler decoys include the Strutter Decoy, Strutter Jake, Posturing Jake, Mating Motion Jake, and ¾ Strut Jake. Hen decoys include Preening Hen, Posturing Hen, Upright Hen, Leading Hen, Feeding Hen, and Mating Hen. You can also buy decoy groupings, including the Breeding Pair, Mating Motion Pair, and Flock (one jake and three hens).

The premier company for fold-up, easy-to-carry decoys, Montana Decoy has a strong family of turkey decoy options. As for male turkey displays, consider the Wiley Tom 3D, Jake Purrfect XD, or Fanatic Reaping Decoy. Hen decoys include the Miss Purrfect XD, Spring Fling, and Dinner Belle turkey decoys. Multi-bird packs include The Turkey Flock (one strutter, one jake, one hen) and Purrfect Pair XD (one jake, one hen).

Another big-time turkey brand, Primos, has several decoys available for spring, too. The GobbStopper Strutter and Killer B are two great strutter options. The Lil GobbStopper Hen and Jake pair is a winner as well.

These turkey decoys made waves at NWTF last year, consider adding them to your setup this season!

The Hard Body Laydown Hen by Higdon Outdoors is ideal for tricking dominant and subordinate birds into range. This decoy displays ultra-realistic (XHD Hyper Feathering and iridescence), is very durable, and offers a unique posture that triggers a gobbler’s emotions. It’s even lightweight for easy transport. MSRP is $49.99.

Dave Smith Decoys (DSD) is known for realism, and its latest offering doesn’t disappoint. The Preening Hen is a unique decoy offering that turkey hunters rarely (if ever) see elsewhere. It’s a great confidence decoy to trick even the most reluctant turkeys. As with all DSD products, it’s loaded with realistic features. MSRP is $149.95.

The Bugging Hen Decoy by The Grind is one of the best-feeding hen decoys on the market. It even has a two-piece motion stake that stays in the decoy. This decoy is fast to set up, even in the dark. It’s full of advantages, including realistic anatomy, great posture, rugged design, iridescent coloring, long-lasting pain, and more. MSRP is $64.99.

Those searching for a strutter decoy should check out the HDR Strutter by Avian-X. It offers incredible realism, durable construction, and more. It comes with a traditional red, white, and blue head, or a dominant all-white head. It’s 15% smaller than real birds for easier transport. The wings and tail fan are removable. MSRP is $269.99.

The LCD Half-Strut Jake by Avian-X is another great pick. This sub-adult, subdominant decoy shows enough submissiveness to draw in toms, but enough sass to bring them in running. Overall, it has a sub-dominant posture, sub-dominant head, and relaxed wings. It’s very realistic, collapsible, easy to transport, and more. Its PVC dura-rubber material is quieter than most decoys. MSRP is $149.99.

The LCD Lookout Hen by Avian-X is an ultra-realistic hen decoy to trick those wily toms. The raised posture increases visibility and more. It's easily collapsible and the paint scheme is especially realistic. MSRP is affordable, too, at $99.99.
