Yes these types of foam poppers work as well or maybe a little better then traditional hardbody poppers. But the nicest thing about foam poppers is they are easy, fast and cheap to make.
I usually cut it bigger then I need it at first. I dry fit it to the body then cut it closer to size before gluing. With foam and superglue you get one shot at it because the foam sets up on contact. It is easier to leave the foam oversize and trim it after gluing to keep the fly even and balanced.
Nice simple looking popper.
