Drake Deke Bag

Postby Rice » Thu Jan 01, 2009 6:40 pm

I just got the stand up decoy bag a week ago today...This morning I am hunting some flooded timber with at most 20 decoys AND THE STRAP BREAKS...WITH ABOUT 1 MILE LEFT TO WALK!!This is the second drake bag I have had and both have done this?

This really pisses me off because I think these things are supposed to have some sort of solid warranty? And my last one lasted a year before it did this and they wouldn't let me get it fixed...even when I called drake?? Now this one is not even a week old and already broke??

CAN ANYBODY POINT ME IN THE DIRECTION OF A DECOY BAG THAT WILL LAST ATLEAST 2 SEASONS!!!!

whoa! I've had mine longer than people on here knew what drake was, and I still hunt with it... I believe the coil will rust out before that strap breaks.

Just call them....
Their office is about two miles from my house. Good folk.
Sometimes you just have to close your eyes, count to ten, take a deep breath and remind yourself that you wouldn't look good in prison stripes... and just smile at that dumbass and walk away.

Sounds like they have some quality control issues with their vendor and either need to be made aware, or already are and will be willing to help you remedy this problem.

I would hate to think their quality is going down the tubes, I have always thought they were one of the best companies out there.

Heard all there stuff and Macalister is now being made in China.... I have some new pants thats were all jacked up when I got them... Back pocket sowed shut, etc. The straps on all thos bags can only take so much..especially with weighted keal decoys.
