Jim I sent you an email requesting pictures. If you don?t get it please send pictures to Hankyorke@yahoo.com

I've had both the RoughTuff & Gunner, I still have RoughTuff. The Gunner was too big for my new company vehicle. That's the only downfall of the Gunner in my opinion is the inner vs outer dimensions.

They?ll float just fine. Those were carved by Derek Bendell who used to post a lot here. They were made for small water and walk-ins. Since GP has no current, I wouldn?t worry about the line attachment unless you?re swinging them around your head :)

As Steve said, everything but the keel says LL Bean to me. That may be a newer bird... I don't have anything newer than the late '80s and have more than I can hunt so I haven't looked at the new stuff Bean is putting out.

Per usual, very well done Steve. I can see that they are Al's birds, but they have your flair as well.

I love wool as a base-layer or an insulating layer and wear it for most outdoor activities from hunting to running... I've had First Lite, KUIU, IceBreaker & SmartWool. First Lite - nice, but I got 2 very itchy tops and didn't feel it was as durable for the price KUIU - very athletic fit not...

I bounce around from gun to gun all season... if I could only have one I'd pick either Browning Auto 5 or Benelli M1 Both have served me (and thousands of other hunters) well for decades.

Yesterday all 3 drakes had green rumps

For you folks with the Sugar coats; Would one of you be so kind as to take a picture with it laid flat and include some measurements? I think I could make one out of an old surplus wool blanket Thanks!

It's rough here in Central IN; it was in the 20's last week and things were getting good, now it's in the 50's and everything is open again...

Do you know the make/model of that blind?

I saw that the other day and thought those looked like Jim's decoys... chalked it up to coincidence. Very cool.

Nice composition & accessories Phil! Where did you find your barrel?

I agree
