Banded Pintail!
« on: January 07, 2013, 09:49:00 AM »
Me and my 2 huntin partners went to a private field on saturday for the hunt. It was a slow day but then we had a group of about 20 Pintails come in and the three of us smacked out our limit on them. the last one i shot didnt take a fatal shot and he felt like running across the field while i chased him down. When i picked him up i got real excited lol. So during the hunt i called it in and right now im waiting for the info to come back on the band! Sure was great to get a band my first year duck hunting!

LOL, with that said. The guy that got me into duck hunt was with me and hes never got a band in the 8 years hes been doing it. SO.... i let him keep the band for showing me the ropes and whatnot.

I'll post the details when i get it back.
