Looks like you did pretty good.

lota wear n tear on the shoulder for a lil meat. good hunt though

Lol  Never been mad enough at a duck to get up at 4:00 and waid in the cold water to shoot one.

Man we were camped on the river to do a little duck hunting. We got up bout 5 and headed out but there were guys that came by at 3:30am headed to a blind. I like duck hunting but I've never been that mad at em. That's 330 in a boat and we were 15 minutes from the dock so they prolly rolled out of bed at 230 245 in the morning. I told my buddy if I ever get crazy like that just go ahead and shoot me.

I am an avid duck hunter, mostly becuase we dont have hogs here in Kansas yet.  But it does take a special kind of nut job to get up that early to sit in 14 degree weather.  Last year I had my dads old troutfishing waders that were uninsulated and had holes in them.  I would be sitting in 20 degree weather with 6 inches of water in my boots plumb stupid if ya ask me.  The first thing I bought was a nice coat and a good pair of insulated waders, and they sure do make it a lot more enjoyable.  It is an awesome sight though when you have a whole bunch of ducks or hundreds of geese cupped and about to land in your decoys.  The really good days keep me going.  Good looking lab in that picture too!  I needa get me a retriever

I have been duck hunting one time in my life and that was enough for me. It was pretty exciting action watching the birds fly in and all though. But I dont do cold and wet. I can do cold, or I can do wet, but put the two together and I'm out.

ggod one mr bennet. what did you use?

i go every year to our pond and hide in the cat tails

i didnt call , and i used a bennellie 12 gage that kicked like a mule. some times i would shoot twice but not on purpis,the gun kicked so hard i would pull the triger.

nice, i had that problem when i was younger so i was only allowed to have one shell in. but i think it helped me out in the long run as in a thought that i shouldnt miss

LMAO

I'm not a duck hunter, but to get out of work
for the day "show me the way"!! Good load
of ducks! What's the best way to cook a duck?
Alot of people told me to wrap it with bacon
stick it in the oven for a bit when the bacon
looks done just take the bacon off and "throw
the duck away and eat the bacon!!!! Never tried
it before.

paulm, i gave mine away and stoped by mcdonalds and got a happy meal. you probly wonder y a happy meal. you get a toy. and xmas is just around the corner.

Paul wrap an onion a sliceof seedless jalapeno and a duck breast in bacon and sprinkle some Tonya on it. Cook it on the pit. Don't get much better than that.

Good duck hunt.

Tonys not Tonya. Dam phone...

Well done.

I wrap it in bacon, and cook her tell shes well done.  I have heard you eat duck rare, but I dont want anything that smells like that under well done.  I only eat the stufff because I like to hunt it though, im not gunna pass up a good steak for duck on any meal

Does crawling up on a pond with a .22 and shooting ducks of the water count ?

whats the story on the antler there

I went for the first time this year too an them r some tough lil dudes but it's pretty fun apart from freaking being cold !!

Sorry if someone hit on this already but Monty to me that don't look like coffee in the bed of the truck!! Lol

ok you win ,dang it silver bullet

Not to familiar with ducks so what kinda ducks are those, besides dead ducks?

Thats awesome, nice job.  Love duck hunting, especially with a good water dog.  It is a lot of work but all worth it. 

when i was a kid my grandfather took care of about 2000 acers for a man, he would let me and my brother sneek up behind the tank dams and blast hell out of them. the old man would lhao at us. tried settn in the blinds tooo cold and wet and not enough action for me,
