TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Realistic duck shape designed to maximize chances of attracting ducks

This plastic is the first form of duck to be developed entirely by our teams, as we started from the observation that there were no realistic chard shapes available at an affordable price in Europe. Our aim at Solognac is to encourage encounters between ducks and waterfowl, by shortening the distances between hunters and birds. The realism of this plastic (in terms of color, volume and position) plays a fundamental role.

The steps involved in creating this mallard chard

This shape took many months to develop. It all began with the work of a woodcarver, who brought the first prototype to life. This was followed by 3D modelling, and various adjustments to volume and attitude, to create a true-to-life blette. Various phases of colorimetry and 3D texturing of the feathers, punctuated by field tests, resulted in a plastic with ultra-realistic colors.

Realism of form: an essential factor

When hunting from a barrel, hut or gabion, it's vital that the pack is as massive, complete and realistic as possible to fool wild ducks. Thanks to this accessory, the pack formed (we also recommend placing a few of these chard among your decoys) maximizes your chances of landing. Whether on a marsh, a small body of water or a puddle where wild game is likely to be encountered, this "mute" is formidably effective for passing.

Why do the characteristics of this form of mallard make it an indispensable accessory?

The keel of this shape is weighted to guarantee optimum buoyancy in the face of splashing water and small waves. Also, given that these chard can remain in place for months on the pond, our engineers, passionate about waterfowl hunting, have chosen a resistant thermoplastic main component for greater durability in the face of climatic hazards and seasonal changes. Last but not least, the properties of the paint resist possible degradation by salt water.

A hard-wearing appeal designed to withstand the seasons

In response to feedback from our users - hutters, gabioners and tonnayres - the plastic's resistance has also been designed to cope with transport conditions (car, boat, bag, etc.) and storage conditions during and after the hunting season. This element, essential for all good waterfowlers, has been worked on by our teams to guarantee the shape's optimum lifespan. It also features a matt paint finish to prevent it from glistening on a full-moon night.
