Who cares? Its just a duck.

By all means keep the thread going fellas I'm getting a kick out of it.


To address the "guide" question.

This must really be bothering "birddog14" (please stop PMing me, my inbox is getting full) I find it all kind of funny.

I rarely "guide" hunts most are for pigs or deer, not ducks. I do "take" a lot of friends and family out duck hunting on occasion. We usually shoot limits of pintail hens, and coots.


My business is the "day hunts" for deer, pigs, and ducks. We manage several properties in various central/north central texas counties. We also trap pigs, and offer "guided" pig hunts during the summer in east texas.

One last thing and I'm done;

My name is on every post it's "Matt" Also my web address and Phone # are in multiple locations, I'm not some jerk hiding behind a screen name. If it's really bothering you so much give me a call, I'm really a great guy.

This is what the issue is 1000%

You have hunt prices in you sig..one is ducks..and not even a cheap duck hunt at that!!!!

Therefore you are telling the general public, long term hunter or newbie your an expert, b/c you guide.

Let's make a note...

Being a duck over via species will probably have more finanical ramifications then shooting a less then 13 in deer in a AR county...which is basically the same thing..your the guide and your sitting with a client you would you let him shoot a a 12" spread deer or call him off???

As a guide you are the expert, you are the responsable party.

And your joking about it is very troubling..very

If you where a regular Joe..you would caught a little hell on here but its a good lesson..everybody makes mistakes...but your not a regular Joe your a guide

First you sink your boat!!!!!!!! then you call a 2 limit duck a 6 limit duck..

I don't give a hoot how good you call, how many ducks you kill, or if you pull limits every day...fact is you advertise your self as a guide.. guides job is to safely take care of their clients.. so far your not showing a good history and on a public forum none the less.. and then try to dismiss it as nothing.


And to anyone else that just started guiding please take note.

First you sink your boat!!!!!!!! then you call a 2 limit duck a 6 limit duck..

So now we get to the bottom of it.

I hunt from the same boat for 5 years in all kinds of weather, and number of hunters. I get blow over by the wind (25+mph not to mention gusts) and now I'm an idoit, great call.

You got, accidents DON'T exist and I must be an idiot.

Also just to set the record straight we have never sold a single duck hunt all the properties we purchased and leased back in jan/feb are completely dry from this years drought.

We have been selling deer/pig hunts for 4-5 years but just aquired the properties for ducks.

Call me a guide, call me an average joe, doesn't matter to me. I'm just a guy that loves to hunt ducks, deer, pigs, geese, cranes, pheasants, & quail. I also love to see people get out on a "first time" hunt with a daughter or a son. We don't break even on our hunts and don't intend to anytime soon, this "business" isn't so we can stack up a pile of money. It's stritctly for our enjoyment, keeps me, my dad, and most importantly my grandpa (80) busy active and outdoors.

Sure beats the heck out of the best day at REAL work!!

So lets make a note;

Now that you know who I am, try a personal attack that actually fits.



Specs on my boat: (You might find something to rip me over here too)
