How many stories did you ever hear start with the term (back in the day). When I was a young boy and I started hunting. All my friends wanted to do was, shoot as many birds and kill as many deer as they could.
As many ducks as you can put in the boat was our battle cry. If it flies it dies ,if its brown its down. Tee shirts were with these same words. It didn't take me long to know this wasn't the way to go. Was it my fault the ducks were not flying as good, Or because I didn't see as many big deer. I really thought that I played a roll in the drop of the duck population. I started reading any book about ducks that I could, every magazine, and I learned my friends and I did lots of dumb stuff (BACK IN THE DAY). But progress did lots more damage then any dumb kid.
