Grampas 20 and my first drake!
« on: January 20, 2013, 08:14:53 AM »
In light of the recent oldschool hunt thread, I went out yesterday and scored my first ever drake! This is my first duck season and I have gotten skunked more often than not. Took these birds with my beloved late grandfathers citori 20gauge yesterday. Feeling pretty proud today, not only my first drake but my first day coming home with more than 1 bird! And using the old mans 20 made it even more special



The deer are exactly where you find them, and no where you dont!

Very cool. Congrats on the birds.

 The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.
