They're all ARDS Max save files, so you'll have to use Shuny's converter. Since you use Wood R4, the target format should be RAW. Once that's done, the save file should be renamed to the rom's name.nds.sav, ie abc.nds and abc.nds.sav. If you've done all that and it still doesn't work, then... well, you can try taking it up with Shuny, UniqueGeek or Yellow Wood Goblin (the guy behind the Wood firmware).
i know its not the firmware, also that is why i said i knew they were in .DUC files i have converted them to different file formats and none of them are working i have downloaded some other files from there and they work without an issue edit: i meant to say that i have converted the saves that i downloaded to the right format and they worked with the firmware, sorry if my english is bad
The flashcart/firmware you use determines the format and naming convention save files need to adhere to. Regarding .duc, http://gbatemp.net/t233235-uniquegeeks-net-save-converter?view=findpost&p=2913193
