I had the opportunity to head back out west for a few days to avoid this heat that we have here. Had a great time meeting new faces, seeing new things, and just having a great time. Derek Z, Steve and Loie getting started in the first one. Zack H getting focused. Group Shot

Two books that I always recomend is Mark Costilow's book on gunners. Wildfowl carving and collecting published it as one of their workbench projects. Lou or Willy may have it also. The other is the one Tom Matus did on Mallards. Published by Stackpole--I think?
