As I'm sure none of you have noticed, I've been hiding under a rock lately...actually laboring away would be a better description than hiding...anyway, I thought this deserved peaking out, saying my thing, squinting a little, gasping some fresh air and then going back to hiding...err...work.

Redemption...do I hear that an honest gunner won in the pool? Pete' Blackducks for me (albeit a non east coast guy) represents the ideal Blackduck gunner to me. Simple, elegant, just enough ticking on the head, not a lick of feathering to the body, a little bit of cork texture showing through, along with great form and workmanship. If I were in an area with a decent population of Blackducks and had unlimited funds I'd commission a whole rig of Pete's deeks. I'm proud to have one of Pete's Blackducks in my rig, I'm proud to know Pete and call him a friend and there is not a more deserving decoy maker to take BOS in the Wildfowlers contest.

Congrats Pete! Now someone post up a photo...and watch it turn out to be a decoy with individual feathers painted, blended and split...and I'll have to eat crow.

Best
Chuck


Added picture of my Blackduck by Pete:

I still want to see a picture of Pete's deek from Sunday...and maybe a picture of Pete swimming!

Could be worse, maybe Pete made one using canvas! ;>) ;>)


Congrats Pete

 

[P. Revicki]

I have some pictures and will get Chris to post them tonight. We missed you Chuck at the pool this year. Also a big thank you to all the volunteers in the ODCCA for putting the show on. Without their hard work the show would not be what it is GREAT.
Pete

[John Augustine]

Congrats Pete,
Saw you and Mike a few times but never got to talk.
Couldn't happen to a better guy, John

 

[Dan Appel]

Pete it was nice talking with you prior to your big win. Congrats, you deserve it. P.S you should move on to spoonies now?

 

[Eric Patterson]

Pete's black duck decoys are phenomenal. I have a pair and they simply do not have a single fault. Look great in the hand and on the water. The elegance he gets from simplicity, aesthetic lines and subtle paint is the hallmark of a great decoy.

 

[Paul F Boundy]

Those decoys are sweet!
I see why Pete won.

Thanks for sharing Eric.

Best - Paul
