2026 Duck Decoy Giveaway

[OLDE CUTLER]

It is time again for the now 8th annual Decoy Give Away. The decoy this year will be awarded on May 14th, which is also National Buttermilk Biscuit Day (???????). This year the prize will be one of my hand made wire and canvas decoys, an antiqued Buffle Head. All the winner needs to do is clear out some space in their man cave or she shed for this fine bird to have a place to roost. The decoy itself measures 10 and 1/2 inches long, 6 inches wide, and 6 and 1/2 inches high. The pictures shown is the actual bird you will receive.

This year again, this give away is a further perk to the AAPK users who have Premium Memberships, Gold, Silver, or Bronze. ALL ENTRANTS MUST BE AAPK PREMIUM MEMBERS. If your membership has lapsed, or you have been sitting on the fence over buying one, you will have until the drawing entry deadline to reup your membership and for Bryan to have received your payment. You will have until May 14, (6:00 P.M. Eastern) to pick a number. After this time, any entries submitted will be disregarded, as will entrants who are not current paid up AAPK Premium Members. The winner will be determined by the Illinois State Lottery evening pick three drawing on May 14th. The Individual closest to the selected number without going over will win. The Illinois lottery results can be found on the following website:

This will be run like the monthly knife giveaway. Click here to get your number:

You must be 18 years of age or older to play. Previous winners are not eligible, (yes that means you rea1eye, Knife Nut, Snapper, ken 98k, Coinfolio, Colonel26, and C-WADE7). The winner will be sent a PM after the drawing and will have 5 days to respond with your name and shipping address, if you do not respond within the allotted time the decoy will be given to the next closest winner on the list without going over. Due to the high shipping costs, the winner must have a home address within USPS zones 1-9 to facilitate receiving a large flat rate box.
Good Luck to all the entrants.
Thanks Bryan for your help in setting this up.
