Im BIIIGGGGG on doing things different than others. Have always been that way. Most run giant divebomb style goose spreads. Ive gone back to small full body spreads. Most run mojos, I run more movement on water. Most run RMC, RNT, Lares, etc calls. Im using Kent Eason Langniappe and Doug Baum...

Havent hunted one in 6ish years. Its rare I ever put one in the spread. Still have one, but ripples and movement on the water is far more successful for me than flapping wings. I have my theories on mojos. I do remember when they first came out though, and they were as deadly as deadly can be. I...

I took this video yesterday of my decoys when 5-10 mph gusts would pick up. You could see the movement achieved with the reinikeel design @Ryan Ellifson

I dont even own a bow. Couldnt imagine what that is like. Ive never been a big horn hunter, never claimed to be. Despite the numerous people around me that are always killing big animals and trophy horns. I will say, the meat is what has me so freaking excited. From here on out, im going to make...

Boat good enough??

X3 on Sitka waders. I’ve had mine since they first came out. Only one repair on them and it was their very first boot style. Freak accident and took a branch in the neoprene ankle where the boot was bonded to the wader. Sent them back and they repaired and sent them with the newer lacrosse boots...

Nothing like fresh mallard who haven’t been hunted. 5 note hen just as they go over and wings get put away and they bank hard right/left and feet down in decoys. Found a little hole that’s maybe 30 yards across and tucked down in trees. It’s gonna be close quarter action next weekend. But gosh I...

Don’t hunt upland but years ago we were there and randomly we were walking back to the boat my little girl got real birdy. I loaded a shotgun real quick, as I was told pheasants were around. Got stupid lucky and stumbled up on this one randomly. Made for a good pic. Sorry I’m no help on location...

The wind works well with the swim keels. I have them on all my decoys this year. One hunt was a constant 10-15 mph wind and the movement I was getting was incredible in the decoys. Like you, I rarely hunt current anymore, and use splashers to create wake in the decoys. When that bit of wind...

We talk about this a lot. Its been proven over and over how A personalities attract to A personalities. There are those that fail and lose desire, and theres those that fail and it makes them work harder. Sometimes I get more motivated to chase fowl when I had a rough weekend or had a hard hunt...

I worry about that with sheep. We have Ibex here and I have never heard anyone like the meat. I simply wont waste my time if its not worth eating. I dont even much care for duck, but it makes good jerky and jerky sticks. Whenever I do one just a little wrong or dont like the outcome, cut it up...

Ya I have really enjoyed whats been eaten so far. Exactly what I said to the guys, for my first elk hunt ever, I got to stalk em, sit for em, and get stampeded in all one hunt. I got it all in one hunt. The old guy you see helpin me in the pictures has hunted big game for 40ish years. He guided...

Its an adventure. Lots of hiking up and down elevation. Was definitely different than anything I had ever done before. It was certainly a neat experience I will do again. I can see why people get addicted to that kind of a chase. Does it excite me more than having 100 mallard set wings into a...

See what I can draw next year. Ill be putting in for a lot more tags. Steaks were unreal. Cooked them right off the bone, same day we butchered. Did bbq elk burger last night. Again, some family in town and the pickiest of eaters ate it right down. Might be looking for a landowner cow elk tag in...

Hear oryx and Barbary sheep eat real good. May try and get drawn for those next year as well. I have only pulled the trigger on ducks one time this year. Got my truck back 3 days before this elk hunt, so fowl better watch out. It’s game on!
