I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

I started duck hunting in 2005. That year the picture on the federal stamp was a hooded merganser. I told my hunting buddy that one of my goals in duck hunting would be to shoot a hoody and get it mounted to commemorate my first season. The three or four years I hunted in Michigan I never saw one. This was my first season hunting in Texas and I shot this one the second time out.  It's at Birdworks as we speak.

I would have to say my best bird of the year was the magnum Goose taken in Oklahoma while hunting With Delta Waterfowl's Brock Williams during the THF hunt Whiskeyandme put on this year. Taking a triple of bonus Geese. Two of which with one shot was just awesome.

My best bag was over Thanksgiving in Arkansas hunting with my dad (he shot his first greenhead) with two full limits in 25 minutes (all the mallards show up after we limit out):  Best bird was my fully mature Eagle Head Blue Goose I shot in East Bernard:

Woodies might possibly be my favorite of the waterfowl group...so this hole is always fun to hunt and was probably my favorite for the year. (sorry, cell phone pic)  Here's what some of the drakes look like from that hole. 
Overheard at my last convention: "If you wanna make a million bucks in taxidermy, start out with 2 million and in 5 years, if you're lucky, you'll have a million left."
