Haha I knew that was coming. Have you ever killed a deer with a bow? If not I understand why your not a fan. I like to duck and goose hunt but nothing like the adrenaline rush shooting a deer with a bow.

My first was a merganser too and it's on the wall also. That hunt will be etched in my memory forever. Many birds feel at the end of that ol single shot 20.

I love the atmosphere and commradery(sp?) of duck hunting. deer hunting is fun but not for me. I love bow hunting though.

I hear ya,I just can't see spending thousands of dollars a year to duck hunt. I usually make 2 or 3 goose hunts a year. I really like blasting those specks,they sure taste good too.

yep it gets pricey if you arent lucky enough to have someone in your family with a spot... i am one of those unfortunates. hunting reserves can save you some money but the aggravation is a trade off.

Yeah man I hunted the wax a few times and that is not for me. I can handle potlickers fishing but not drunk cajuns with guns thinking they can hunt on top of you.

haha I know the feeling. used to hunt sabine and faster boats would pass me 5 feet away heading down a small canal (scary feeling) .... many times i got sprayed by late comers who would set up 300 or less yards away from us.

great speck calls!!!!! I've duck hunted many of times in sabine and we used to work harder than anybody else out there i think. We would hunt way in the back where the only way back there was to walk. Hunted a real nice size pond most of the time, but had a spot surrounded by potholes and on clear cold days we would limit out on mallards.
