Avery EZ-Bird Training Dummy – Realistic Mallard Flasher for Water & Field

Overview

The Avery EZ-Bird Mallard Flasher is a rugged training dummy designed to mimic a real duck in both water and field drills. Its lifelike silhouette and balanced weight help you stage authentic retrieves, from tranquil ponds to open fields, while minimizing stress on live birds. The buoyant body and easy-to-grip exterior invite confident handling, supporting repeatable retrieves and clean handoffs across varied terrain.

What sets it apart

• Realistic bird shape and size to mirror common quarry and support convincing fetch patterns.
• Durable PVC construction that stands up to weather, mud, and repeated throws during long practice days.
• Patented VGrip design to enhance grip for secure retrieval and steady returns.
• Soft floating body that remains buoyant in water and lands lightly on land for easy pickup.
• Weighted design engineered for longer throws to expand drill range and distance practice.

Training scenarios you can try

Use the Mallard Flasher for water retrieves from ponds, streams, and marsh edges, then switch to land retrieves along grassy paths or field borders. Alternate between slow, controlled fetches and longer, driving throws to build consistency, marking, and release cues. The setup encourages confident releases in varied lighting, wind, and water conditions, helping you tailor sessions to your dog’s pace and skill level.

Care and use tips

• Rinse after wet sessions and air dry before storage to extend the dummy’s life.
• Regularly inspect the VGrip area and floating body for wear; replace worn components to maintain grip and buoyancy.
