Any interest in a decoy swap this Spring?

[Rich Hohler]

I was hoping to get some more decoys done by now but that hasn't worked out so I have this bluebill gunner to offer up for the swap. The swap decoy is the back left drake in the pic.

holy crap I go to work for a day and look what happens. AWESOME

 

[Tom Modin]

Steve, RC D and Matt Brooks are confirmed along with me

Add Scott green, jeff c and Brandon Y into the done column. Scott and Brandon texted me decoy pictures this week. From what I have seen these are all going to be good trades.

got a text from Jim Williams with his bird today confirming his eligiblity

Phil is confirmed with a picture also. No messing around with Phil

Rich, jeff and Neil are in with some great birds.

When it comes time I will pull all names from a hat and assign them a number. I will then have a non participant from the site who does not know the names/numbers assigned.

I need to withdraw my name. Haven't had time to work on any birds over the last few weeks. Seemed to run out of time all of a sudden. Next time though!!

Tom, I have been gone for a few months with too many things going on to talk about. If it's not too late, I would like to throw my name in also. I will offer a cork canvasback working decoy. It's finished since I have been feverishing knocking decoys out, getting ready for the Potomac Waterfowl festival at the end of the month. Let me know if I "made the cut" and if you need a photo.

Carving and sanding is all done! Just waiting on eyes from Van Dykes so I can finish it up. Will Post a pic on Sunday night/Monday morning.

Cork Bluebill with basswood head, and Pine tail and bottom board. Learned a lot on this bird, going to finish up a mini rig of divers so I can try and get out on my own next season.

i will send the numbers off to a member of duckboats not in the swap to draw next Monday at or around 5pm. I will have a list of numbers here with names assigned to them that I will make by drawing out of a hat. He will draw a number out in order not knowing any of the names associated with the numbers.

 

[Phil Walters]

Tom don't forget to put me in the mix. Thanks Phil
