    Gumbo (Bama Bill) duck call....

    That would be nice, but it's not an M101 (someday maybe). That's an old weatherby Orion, that I forgot how nice it shoulders but plan to us it more this year. I was using an auto loader last year, but swore to use the O/U this year for puddle ducks. I like 2 3/4 inch #6 shot with this gun, it's...

    ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

    You are speaking to the choir when you posted. In my area, you are stepping on hunters and "permanent" duck blinds every where. I try to stay away from those situations because it kills the enjoyment, which is why I woke up to go hunting. I hunt many public areas and have watch other hunters...

    Gumbo (Bama Bill) duck call....

    I don't call much, but figure I'd give it a try. Lee Harker fund auction call was an opportunity to contribute and add another call to the collection (the kids love them) I took my son out for a couple of hours of midday duck hunting. He and I were testing out this call and what do you know...

    The Long hunt (stranded overnight)

    That is a classic chapter in all the posts you've added to this website. Great to hear you were able to share.

    What is the best Personnal Floatation Device for boat hunters?

    Bill, I was thinking about this also, I've been flipping back and forth between the Mustang Floation coat and the Mustang Bomber Jacket. The floation jacket comes in camo http://www.mustangsurvival.com/...php?id=491&mc=24 But I figured it maybe too long for sitting in a boat, so the Bomber...

    Something to think about (Not Duck Related)

    Not planning to shoot someone, but the thought does cross my mind when someone puts me in a rock and a hard place. My kids were what I was thinking of when I gunned the gas. I reported the incident to the police as a non-emergency after I got home, this way if someone has the same thing happend...

    Something to think about (Not Duck Related)

    Leason was learned. I lock the screen doors also. I'm not the paranoid type, that'll keep a loaded shotgun ready-- but somedays it makes me think I should. I've never had any problems in over 35 yrs of living in this area, but times have changed. I brought home my dog for the reason of the break...

    Something to think about (Not Duck Related)

    I live in Brookhaven township. I was just getting back from Church. But I never thought to lock my doors while driving out here in Suffolk. I lock them when I'm not in the truck. Now, my wife who was born and raised in the Bronx, has got the right to say "I told you so". She locks the car doors...

    Something to think about (Not Duck Related)

    That would work. The only thing that sucks in my area, is I'd have to be going too or coming from a shooting range.

    Something to think about (Not Duck Related)

    That's what I was thinking too. I count my blessings, but my weak link was my kids. Caught unprepared for a "what if" scenario, but if I didn't have my kids in the truck, I'm 95% positive that I'd have cut the wheel to the left and backed up, put it in foward and felt the new speed bump. Sam's...

    Something to think about (Not Duck Related)

    This past sunday, I was coming home from church with my two boys in the truck. My oldest son was in the passenger seat and my youngest was in the back seat behind me. I was stopped at a red light with a van in front of me waiting for the green. I'm looking out the driver side window when my...

    The Rat Pack has fired it up again.

    It's taken me 5 going on 6 years to get mine finished :0) I'm stuck at the painting part. (Plus 3 young kids, and all their activities slowed me down-- but I'm not complaining)

    How do you feel about big game hunting? How has bird hunting changed that?

    I gave up deer hunting. I can't eat an entire deer before it gets freezer burnt. My friends are into it, and if I want a taste of venison they'll bring it over. We are over run with deer out here, farmers and others want to eliminate them. Over the years, I watch our quail population...

    29 Things I did while duck hunting where there were no ducks -NDR

    Don, Great post. After reading the beaver slap... which caught my attention to read more, I laughed and remebered my cousin yelling into the darkness thinking it was some antihunter throwing boulders at us. He was really pissed at those beavers, but didn't know that they were beavers...

    So I'm in New York over the weekend...

    Steve, At first I was thinking, Steve in New York??? Then it hit me... and I haven't stopped laughing. Great post... I learned to keep the toilet seat down, lab or chessie--don't matter they eat or roll into smelly stuff. -Jack

    Good day

    I was wondering when a picture of Gus would appear. It looks like you had a fun time out there. John's pup Looks like she'll be a handful, did he get him from the same breeder as Gus? I think I met your son a few years back, It took me a while to put the name with the memory. -Jack

    The places we go--the things we see....

    Steve, Great photos! I loved the one with Mike with the Montana Rosters. If I could put a caption in one word it would be "STAY!" . How did you get that O/U to balance on that wagon wheel? -Jack
