Forgot the game straps, so for the opener KentuckyNative and I had to find something to carry the ducks out with. Thankfully he had a Harley tie-down strap in the truck. For all the Internet game wardens, next time we'll take two so we're not stacking up two limits. We had a great opener with some pintails, gadwall, one green wing and one sorry ringneck. The temperature made it feel like a teal hunt, but sure was good to see the big ducks coming in. Can't wait for cooler temps and more hunts!

One of those pintails looked like it was a cross w/a snow goose...dam long neck!

No kidding, Ol Yeller ... that was one long necked pintail. A group of at least 20 pintails come in all together on the pond we were hunting; that was a pretty sight for sure!

Great hunt with ACov on Saturday. Now all I need is a Harley Davidson barrel sticker, it will go great with my newly sprouted Duck Dynasty beard...anyone have Willie G.'s number? I want to know what I need to do to add HD pro-staffer to my signature line.

KentuckyNative, you could probably get your barrel dipped in chrome and add some of these to it:


It won't flare ducks ...

If you will start picking bind locations where we don't have to stare into the sun I might be able to use an all chrome gun.
