Finally Got Him Back

[Smalls]

Well, my buddy told me a few months ago he had this beauty ready for me. It wasn't until this weekend that I finally got to see him again. I shot this bird hunting with my buddy and his brother on some of his in-laws' property in Fenton this past December. This pair of mallards had been flying around all morning, but never in gun range. They finally made that fatal mistake around 8 or so when they flew straight in, and I proceeded to drop both the drake and hen. My first greenhead and first double. Actually didn't plan on getting him mounted, but they had a friend that was trying to get into the duck side of taxidermy, and since I was a guest, I said what the heck, take it, but I want it if it comes out good.

Gorgeous duck, had 4 nice curls.
