Another Great Day

I decided to head out by myself this morning and chase some cocks.  I hunted out yonder at the refuge and had my two birds in under an hour.  Chase found like 10 birds today.  It was a blast. The first we couldn't find so there is only one in the picture.
After hunting pheasants I went home and worked in the yard for a bit.  Then it was time to head out after the ducks again.  Hit the same spot as yesterday.  Todd came out with me, and Jordan met us out there after a bit.  The ducks worked good but it took Todd a while to start hitting them.  Its an adjustment to shoot from the sitting position. We ended up with 17 between us.  All drakes except for one suzy widgeon.

  1. The reason it took a while to start hitting was because Braden is much quicker and a deadly shot:)He forgot to mention the part about having to break ice all the way across the pond. It was a different way to hunt and a lot of fun. Thanks!
